History Main / HotMenAtWork

* The VillagePeople.

* On ''Series/BodyOfProof'', Megan visits her landscaper boyfriend at his job and doesn't hide her pleasure at finding him shirtless. Seeing as he's played by MrFanservice himself, JamieBamber, one can hardly blame her.

* Fifth Harmony's song "Work from Home" features them singing while hot construction workers go about their business around them.

* May be part of the reason why Mike Rowe from ''DirtyJobs'' has gotten so popular.

* The artwork of Tom Of Finland, mixture between this and LeatherMan.

* ''MST3K'' did this in one episode (''Film/SanFranciscoInternationalAirport''), with a shirtless Dr Forrester and Frank doing some repairs in Deep 13. Dr Forrester is in ''nice'' shape.

* In the {{Madonna}} music video for "Express Yourself" Madonna oversees an entire factory of shirtless, hunky workers.

* ''ComicBook/TheSimpsonsComic'' - when Homer is framed for one of Mr Burns's crimes and sent to prison, Marge hires a whole team of buff shirtless men to do the housework. Lisa points out that Homer didn't do any of the stuff they're supposedly filling in for, but Marge isn't listening.

* Double subverted by [[SteelMill steelworkers]]. Their work certainly is hot - pyrometallurgy requires immensely high temperatures - but they themselves wear all-covering thermal protection suits, 'silvers'.

* Using another gardening example: in ''SomethingNew'', Sanaa Lathan's character finds herself getting a little hot and bothered watching Simon Baker dig up roots in her yard.
* ''TheFullMonty''. (Although most of them were ''out'' of work, and only one really qualified as "hot." But "sexy working-class guys" was at least the idea behind the plan.)

* The opening scene of ''TamaraDrewe'' provides the audience with a nice view of a handsome male character's naked torso as he's chopping wood outdoors.
* The chef in ''JumpingTheBroom'' for some reason has a scene outside in nothing but overalls catching fish.

* Mellors from ''LadyChatterleysLover'' must surely be one of the [[TropeCodifier trope codifiers]], specifically for the gardener type.

* Charlotte in ''SexAndTheCity'' fantasizes about the gorgeous rose gardener--and eventually kisses him--during her first marriage. Her mother-in-law proclaims that she's proven herself part of the family once she finds out about the fling, heavily implying that the other women of the family have had similar dalliances with the staff.
* ShowWithinAShow example- ''{{CSI}}'', "Two and a Half Dead".
* At least one episode of ''DesperateHousewives'', with [[MsFanservice Edie]] walking past a construction site.

* ''TrueBlood''

* Brilliantly parodied in ''{{The IT Crowd}}'' when Jen has to distract a woman to sneak Roy out from under her desk, by looking out the window and saying: "Ooh, a builder working with his shirt off.. just like on the television." All the women run to take a look, to reveal a pale, flabby guy staring vacantly back at them.
* In ''TheOC'' season 2 premiere, the Cohen's house was being remodeled by burly construction workers. The neighbors have started calling their house "The Manhole".

* Mentioned at least twice on ''{{Frasier}}'' - once when Roz mentions that she intends to spend her vacation getting her house renovated, in the company of 'hot sweaty construction workers'. On another occasion, after a bad date, she expresses her intention to go home, put on something slinky, rip out her sink and call building maintenance.

* Michelle on ''FullHouse'' makes a killing selling lemonade to the construction workers outside. When she mentions their shirtlessness, Stephanie and Becky race outside to get a good view.

* A chapter of ''TwoAndAHalfMen'' saw Enrique Iglesias playing one of these.

* On ''Series/BodyOfProof'', Megan visits her landscaper boyfriend at his job and doesn't hide her pleasure at finding him shirtless. Seeing as he's played by EstrogenBrigadeBait himself, JamieBamber, one can hardly blame her.

* Piper's [[OurAngelsAreDifferent whitelighter]] and eventual husband, Leo, in ''Series/{{Charmed}}''. He initially poses as a handyman, and there are a couple of [[FemaleGaze lovingly focused shots of his butt]]. And a ShirtlessScene or two as well.

* ''SengokuBasara'' has Katakura Kojuro, resident BattleButler to BloodKnight extraordinaire Date Masamune, who apparently unwinds from a long campaign by way of vegetable gardening. While he's not shirtless (his gardening clothes are actually more modest than his battle gear), there's something undeniably hot about a {{samurai}} who can garden. The fact that he's prime MrFanservice with a sexy [[GoodScarsEvilScars scar]] and loads of HoYay with his boss doesn't hurt either.

-->'''Bart:''' Dad, why did you take me to a gay steel mill?
-->'''Homer:''' I don't know.

* In a first-season episode of ''MythBusters'', preliminary testing required jackhammering a large hole in M5's sidewalk twice. Adam wore his usual t-shirt, Jamie spent most of those sequences shirtless.

* ''Series/GameOfThrones''. Arya Stark comes across Gendry smithing swords while shirtless. Given that Creator/MaisieWilliams is too young to legally satisfy [[PortmanteauCoupleName Gendrya shippers]], her reaction is a couple of subtle downward eye-flicks.

* The [[spoiler: gay]] poolboy in ''LegallyBlonde'' also qualifies. This trope is taken farther than normal with him, as his "uniform" was a thong.

* Fiona on ''Series/BurnNotice'' gets some information about an assassin in a Season 2 episode by visiting a demolition company claiming to be the publisher of hot-men-at-work calendars. She even tells the foreman (who is legitimately hunky) "I think I'm looking at Mr. January right here."
