Work like the devil? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

possess

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">work like the devil?</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for possess that I've seen before include "Have as one's own" , "Have and hold" , "Own, keep" , "influence" , "Consume" .)

I've seen this clue in the Wall Street Journal and The New York Times.
