Show Up, Shut Down, Clock In and Check Out.

This phenomenon describes how some people react to undesirable and uninspiring work situations. This phenomenon is mainly applicable to people working boring, mindless jobs, most of whom perform rote work -- e.g., data entry -- or are paid simply simply for their presence -- e.g., a booth attendant. Activities that constitute 'shutting down' and checking out' include: napping, reading, sending excessive/unnecessary text messages, and listening to one's iPod.

Elliott: I'm surprised Tom hasn't gotten more sleep today -- doesn't he have to work the graveyard shift tonight?
Mark: Yeah, but remember, he's a booth attendant in the middle of the night...he's just going to Show up, Shut down, Clock in and Check out.

tow-in and tow-out

Not to be confused with the similar-sounding-and-also-automotive-related term used when discussing the particulars of a front-end alignment, this phrase refers to an “ultimate in sweetness” revenge-action that you perform on someone whom you’re fumin’-mad at. Plus it’s quite simple and fairly low-cost, as well; all you need is a wrecker-truck and an opportunity to access his unattended vehicle.

Tow-in and tow-out is comparatively easy and highly-effective means to bring no end of misery and humiliation to almost anyone who has wronged you… what you do is acquire a suitable-sized wrecker-truck and haul your victim’s vehicle (i.e., “tow it in”) to a location where parking is a big no-no, such as in a handicapped-designated space, on a bridge/causeway, in front of a fire-hydrant or public mailbox, in a “resident/customer-parking only” or “no parking; tow-away zone” area, etc. Then move a few blocks away and sit in your truck to wait till the call goes out over the airwaves for “any available tow-vehicle in the area” to haul off the illegally-parked vehicle, whereupon you promptly thumb your mike and offer to take the call. You then proceed back to your victim’s vehicle and whisk it off to the impound yard (“tow it out”). And then, of course, your unfortunate victim is obliged to endure the assorted hassles --- not to mention considerable expense --- of both locating his suddenly-vanished jalopy and coughing up the exorbitant sums necessary to regain the use of said vehicle! Schweet! Just be sure that you don’t get caught hauling the car to the illegal spot in the first place, and you should be all set.
