Giving
something to employees that comes at an inconsequential cost to the company; an incentive. Used in the
Simpsons when Homer requests more tartar sauce for employees to use on their fish
sticks. This theoretically results in better employee moral and, thus, greater productivity.
"Those donuts I put in the break room are pure tartar sauce."
"Let them have their
tar-
tar sauce" - Mr. Burns
"These
lazy employees need some tartar sauce to get them going."
"Give the employees some tartar sauce and then increase their hours."
