💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so gearman_work_t is the little struct that describes work for gearman_execute() <#c.gearman_execute>. that's the whole job. it's giving "i'm the blueprint" energy. ✨

• gearman_work() — makes you a gearman_work_t with a priority. simple, clean, slay.
• gearman_work_epoch() — makes you a gearman_work_t that tells gearman_execute() <#c.gearman_execute> to run the workload at the time specified by epoch. scheduled queen behavior ⏰
• gearman_work_background() — makes you a gearman_work_t that tells gearman_execute() <#c.gearman_execute> to run the workload as a background job. no cap, it's just gonna vibe back there 🦋
