Boondoggle

Using corporate funds to visit a client that you really don't need to see. The real reason for visiting the client is to explore the area, visit a friend, try the food scene, or some other personal reason not associated with work. Your boss is unaware of your true motive and believes you are actually conducting work.
Salesperson 1: "Jim is going to Hawaii to visit his client next week."
Salesperson 2: "Bullshit. Jim's client there is tiny. That's just a boondoggle so he can surf all week. I bet he only goes to the office once."

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
