What's "the word I'm thinking of" this Labor Day? It's....
sudoriferous [soo-duh-RIF-er-us] (adjective)
Producing or secreting sweat
"'It is absurd to expect a man of my capabilities to engage in sudoriferous efforts,' declared Dr. Smith as the Major handed him a shovel. He considered any physical labor beneath him, much to the annoyance of the shipwrecked crew."

Be forewarned; the Google images for this word are icky.
