The license plate game is simple.  You spot a license plate with 3 letters and make a word starting with the first letter of the license plate, followed by the other 2 letters in order (they don't have to be next to each other).  For example ABC could be Abercrombie (as in & Fitch), although usually we don't use capitalized words.

I spotted a license today and was so proud of the word I made, I thought I'd challenge y'all.  These are the letters:

U Q S

Can you come up with the word?

wikipedia says wetwork or wet work, so that works, but I was thinking of waterworks, which sounds similar, but doesn't involve blood!

I think we can turn this into a game (hard though) so Peleroja or someone else put up three more letters.

i can't play this game because all the licence plates in my country are either PV, GV, CM, RT, TX or DL and they are all already related to a word.
PV - Private   GV - Government, CM - commercial, RT - rental, TX - taxi, DL - Dealer
