I find the pop (mis)use of the word "Karma" annoying. Karma is part of a cycle of reincarnation. Karmic benefits do not accrue in one's current life -- they affect the next life. Our current situation is the result of actions in a past life.
Every person I have heard use this word casually does not believe in any form of reincarnation.
And to go deeper, this is a selfish argument for ethics or hard work. "Do it because it is good for you" should be, "Do it well because this is the correct thing to do".
