The KARKIL Dictionary Defines: Unployee

Unployee, n: a person that works for a company in a capacity similar to an employee, but for no compensation; volunteer. It seems possible that as the ACA Healthcare law goes into effect, lots of people will be quitting jobs that they hate, but they will still want to have something to do even if they don't get paid. Also, there is a trend called "freeworking" where someone interested in pursuing a certain activity offers his services to somebody doing it just for the experience, CV credit, even portfolio samples. Such a person, since they aren't officially employed but still working as if they were, is an unployee.
