The act of spending company dollars on booze in an attempt to make a work team get on better.
Likely to backfire and actually break down a team due to the free nature of the booze and it's much-loved disinhibition, coupled with an abhorrence of your colleagues. Watch out for a drunkfession, drunkfrontation and an assortment of drunkidity.
Crafty managers have been known to use this as a ploy to remove a disliked employee.
So you understand that your behaviour at the team building exercise was in breach of your employment contract and our code of donduct, so we have no choice to terminate your employment.

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
