I just worked today. vs I just work today.

The phrases are both correct, but their meanings and contexts differ. 'I just worked today' implies that the action of working has already been completed, while 'I just work today' suggests that the action of working is happening only today. The choice between the two depends on the intended message the speaker wants to convey.
