slopwork

The manufacture of slops (cheap ready-made clothing).

Clothing of this kind.

Hasty, slovenly work of any kind.

[Thomas] Carlyle continued as busy as ever at what he called 'the despicable craft of reviewing,' but doing his very best with it. No slop-work ever dropped from his pen.

This sort of literary slop-work will not suffice for your walking in the roads of life to any good purpose. It is bad work. It is scrubby work.
