Or try getting a new work...

or (better) a new job

(I hope I understand the difference between these words)

'Work' is sometimes used to mean 'office' or 'job'. For example, someone might say 'Why don't you drop by my work after lunch?'

I think that's the usage the parent meant; possibly, it was an intentionally awkward but colloquially valid variation on the grandparent's post.
