Semi-tasking

To do multiple tasks at once, not really putting in much concentration nor effort.

I had so much to do yesterday that I was only semi-tasking most of it, so I basically got nothing done.

Task Switching

When your supervisor or manager asks you to complete a task and you put the task/duty onto another coworker while on shift.

Last night at work my manager asked me to do something during my shift. I found my nearest coworker and gave the task that I didn't want to do to them. Task Switching is really difficult to pull off since it must be consensual for the employee receiving your assigned task.

Dad Task

A task only a father can do the right way.

Tasks might include: packing the car, cutting the lawn, loading the dishwasher, etc...

"Dave is such a cool guy and a great father. I'm sure he would beat me at any Dad Task known to man."

quasi-tasking

/v/ Workin like a hunchback in a church. Doing multiple, endless, meaningless tasks. Usually for a demanding and self-righteous person.

Oh man, yesterday my mom had me quasi-tasking for hours.
Seriously? That's the sixth thing you've asked me to do in the last hour! Stop quasi-tasking me man!

disagreeable-task swap

Refers to a "buddy assistance" deal where Person A completes a yucky/difficult/boring job for Person B that he doesn't feel up to suffering through, while Person B tackles a similarly-sucky task that Person A would ordinarily have to perform himself, but also loathes the thought of doing.

I cleaned out Tiffany's garage in exchange for her vacuuming and mopping the muddy floors of my house after a boisterous post-game visit from our town's little-league baseball team... pretty fair disagreeable-task swap, if you ask me.
