brown-box
An employer's passive method for saying, "Thanks, but no thanks," when an employee gives two-weeks notice. The employee will walk in one morning to a file box on his or her desk. The box will be used by the employee to pack his or belongings before being escorted out of the building.
I gave the firm my two-weeks notice on Wednesday when I found a better job, and had every intention of working the full notice, but by Friday they had decided just to brown-box me.
