Phrase:
“The holiday slowdown”

How to Use It:
Keep mentioning “the holiday slowdown” to your subordinates towards the end of the year. It’ll give those little bootlickers hope until they start wondering why they’re pulling comps during Christmas dinner.

Example:
[3:00pm Christmas Eve]
Managing Director: Hey Jared, get out of here early and take advantage of the Holiday slowdown.
[1:00pm Christmas Day]
Managing Director: Hey Jared, hope you were able to take advantage of the holiday slowdown. Can I get a turn on the Project Tower materials ASAP? Meeting got moved up to Monday.
