How to say "work routine" differently?
Could the phrase work method be used to describe the way you work (the tasks you normally perform and the way you approach them). 'Work routine' sounds a bit negative, what could I use instead?

Do you mean something like "What's a typical day at work like for you?" or "What sort of things do you do on a daily basis?"
I don't find anything negative about work routine, but it would be easier to see the full sentence.

I was thinking about some two-word phrase (analogous to 'work routine'). I don't know why but I have this persistent thought it exists, and I've already heard it, but at the moment I can't recall it.
Oh well, I can't expect you to guess what I *might* have heard. But thanks for the description Barb_D.

I am not a teacher.
Here are a few spitballs:
work ethic
daily grind
routine
rat race
modus operandi
procedure
work habits
habitual practice
chores

I think this one renders best what I had in mind! :up:

I've also come up with work-patterns, especially when describing a typical day at work.
