Rest with a job title, so laziness finally gets to put something on its resume.
means To rest or refuel your energy, typically a battery or yourself, so there's power left to keep going.
from Built from 're-' (again) plus 'charge,' which traces back through French 'charger' to Late Latin 'carricare' — to load a cart ('carrus'). So to 'charge' something is literally to load it up, and to 'recharge' is to load it up again — the word has been refilling things, carts then batteries then people, for centuries.
