There is no preposition in this sentence."To" is used as a preposition when it tells you additional information.Example: Please give the papers to Mrs. Johnson.Here, "to" directs you on what to do with the papers.In your sentence, it is part of the verb, "to work".If you were using "work" as a noun and not a verb, it would be a preposition.Example: She has to get up at six to make it to work on time.To work is not an action here (verb). It is a place, her office or store, so it is a noun.Hope this helps!

It has always been proper to end an English sentence with a preposition. The utterly false rule about not ending a sentence with a preposition comes from an ill-starred attempt to make English conform to the rules of Latin grammar, where a sentence may not end with a preposition. English is not Latin: we can end a sentence with a preposition IF WE WANT TO. Winston Churchill said that the Victorian grammarians' diktat that a sentence must not end with a preposition " . . . is a restriction up with which I will not put".
No, not every preposition requires an object. Some prepositions can function alone without requiring an object to complete their meaning. For example, in the sentence "He walked up the stairs," the preposition "up" has an object ("the stairs"), but in the sentence "They waited for hours," the preposition "for" does not have an object.
