English term or phrase: work in fits
Untuk menggambarkan suatu kabinet yang bekerja sebentar, kemudian beristirahat, dan kemudian bekerja lagi, demikian seterusnya. Dalam hal ini, kabinet tersebut tidak bekerja secara kontinu non-stop. Saya ingin menerjemahkannya menjadi "bekerja terputus-putus", tapi kedengaran kurang pas dan konotosainya negatif. kalimatnya kira-kira seperti ini: "The cabinet reshuffle had led to each committee worked in fits." Terima kasih sebelumnya.

bekerja tanpa arah


Explanation:
Saya merasa pada masa penggantian kabinet itu banyak bagian-bagian di dalam kabinet bekerja tanpa arah atau tidak menentu sehingga pekerjaan mereka terlihat 'tersendat-sendat' atau mungkin terlihat kurang bekerja.
