Why is the word 'work' in brackets in the following sentence? This has been bugging me for ages.
"It's just that the people that really want to get [work] get it," he says.
Sorry wrong forum...doh!

Whatever's in the square brackets is not verbatim from the quote.
The original quote might've been something like:
"It's just that the people that really want to get [b]it[/b] get it."
But as that doesn't make sense with no context, it's altered to:
"It's just that the people that really want to get [work] get it"
