Ghetto situations

Typical circumstances in the 'hood, such as a prevention of a small service due to a late fee.

Another definition is a dramatic situation that's uncommon, but it happens in the 'hood. For example, being late to a late shift due to a shooting.
Person 1: Ay, hit me up.
Person 2: Ghetto situations; Expecting my check, plus my phone bill is about $200.00, mang. Add me on the space, though.

Boss: What makes you late today? An emergency? However, I received your call, so you're excused.
Employee: It was a ghetto situation. On my way to work, there were sirens everywhere after a shooting. It was due to an argument over some loaded dice.

Eternity leave 

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.
Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.

I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.
