work spouse

A significant other you work with, whom you connect, share, and spend time with exclusively and intimately in the workplace. Both parties are mere aquaintances outside of the workplace and are completely unknown to each others true and respective domestic spouses.

"Rumor has it that those two are dating."
"That's completely untrue. Heidi is just Allan's work spouse. That relationship ceases to exist after their 8 hour shift."

work the room

1. A host, hostess, or guest to interact enthusiastically with the attendees at an event, by moving among them, greeting them, and engaging them in conversation.

2. A performer or public speaker to interact with one's audience, taking cues from its reactions and adapting one's performance or words to elicit the audience's attention and enthusiasm.

1. As a campaigning politician, he really knew how to shake hands, kiss babies, and work the room.
2. In show business parlance, Miss Hudson knows how to "work the room." Her comic turns are as rooted in vaudeville as her high-style wit is straight out of the smart supper club circuit.

Masturbating at work.

Ben is a plumber by trade. Sometimes the drains are clogged due to a customer's excessive masturbating tendencies, and sometimes it's because of Ben's frequent Work Toyams.

work release

Basically a program in most prison systems that allows a badass to parlay on the outside for the week before going back to the yard on weekends to show and register time served.

work friend

Someone you connect with at work (ie send same-time messages all day, take bathroom breaks together and share your lunch). The way in which you interact at work leads people to believe you are best friends when in reality you would never been seen outside work with them.

Steve: So are you inviting Tonya to the Pub Crawl?
Jessica: No bro, she's a total work friend.
