means Work done at night—whether by job requirement (shift labor, overnight production) or by necessity (cramming to meet a deadline after the sun goes down).

The word itself has no trick to it; the trick is what humans do with the hours it names, turning a plain label for after-dark labor into shorthand for the specific madness of working when you should be asleep.
