About This Quote

The term “honeybee” often refers to the worker bees in a hive who perform the majority of the work in the hive. Honeybees are responsible for gathering nectar, pollen, and other food sources. They are also responsible for building the honeycomb that stores the food and caring for the young bees. Honeybees are sometimes called "wasp" or "worker" bees. The workers are so busy with their duties that they often do not have time to think about whether they are happy or not.
