Show business is a vernacular term for the business of entertainment. It tends to refer to the agents, managers, production and distribution companies that are in the business of entertainment; it can also include the artists and performers involved. It applies to all aspects of live 'shows', from cinema to television to theater to music.

Get the Show Businessmug. Speaking differently than how you would ever sound in any other setting while at work, usually deeper and with greater voice infliction. You may think you sound distinquished but it comes across as over the top to whoever you are speaking to.

Get the I’m busymug. A wardrobe choice in the business world where one is all business formal above the table and casual underneath the table.
Extreme business mullet is when one elects to wear no clothes underneath the table. Usually only occurs at investment banking firms / wolf of wallstreet environments.

With everybody working from home during the plague, I've decided to go with a business mullet for today's video conference.

Get the Pissy-Busymug. A style of dress on the spectrum of black tie, business formal, and business casual. Business tropical is, in a sense, the next step down from business casual in terms of formality. Business tropical is relatively open ended, but allows for shorts, interesting patterns, unusual ties, and the like. A certain amount of coordination is expected. Tennis shoes are acceptable, but should be specialty shoes or match the outfit. Specialty tennis shoes are acceptable. Hats are acceptable and even encouraged. This style of dress is especially appropriate for tropical-like climates. Distinct from business jungle because it is more formal, and tropical print shirts are seen as passe and out of touch.
The meeting with the potential investors is on Saturday, followed by a barbecue. Dress is business tropical.
