    When a Worker is started, the run method will be executed, but the Thread will not leave until one of the following conditions are met:
-   
-     - the Worker goes out of scope (no more references remain)
-     - the programmer calls shutdown
-     - the script dies

    This means the programmer can reuse the context throughout execution; placing objects on the stack of the Worker will cause the Worker to
    execute the stacked objects run method.
