Ofcourse, this thread would need the assistance of pros in slang. Thanks in advance.

My first question:
Please explain the usage of a "tool"

Someone who is used, or lets himself be used, for a purpose and despite personal feelings that what is being done maybe wrong or immoral.


I.E.
At work I feel like a total tool.

Someone who is used, or lets himself be used, for a purpose other than personal gain and despite personal feelings that what is being done maybe wrong or immoral.
