This line comes from Command and Conquer Generals, the 2003 real-time strategy game from Electronic Arts, where the Global Liberation Army worker is a basic unit used to gather resources and construct buildings. Players hear a different short response each time they select a worker, and this ninth variant has become a favourite for its weary, hurried tone. It later circulated on soundboards and in fan edits, where its brief length makes it easy to drop into gaming clips, reaction videos and memes about work.
