Slovernly people in private life are slovernly workers.

I'm an extraordinarily precise programmer with a messy lawn. And it's "slovenly."

The lawn is a minutely small issue in the realm of things, and depends on the profession --- and how busy a person is.

For example, good petroleum engineers, almost without fail, have obscenly neat lawns, that are often ugly in their sparseness and clean lines.

Good petroleum geologists, in contrast, typically have cluttered lawns, potentially with lawns gnomes and a overgrown flower beds.

Obviously exceptions abound, but you take 20-30 factors like this and put it together.
