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."

Boondocker

A Boondocker is a person (or persons) who enjoy the outdoors away from modern society and whom visit National Forests and BLM land in their quest for freedom and solitude. They are typically Nature lovers and truly believe in "Pack it in, pack it out" and you will seldom be able to tell whether they have visited a location or not.

The mode of travel can be anything on wheels and if so driven they may as well have solar panels to aid in off the grid traveling and visiting locations. Many people are surprised at the education levels found within this group as they range from Doctorates to high school graduates or simply a GED. Whatever their education level, they all seem to have a common thread: To travel freely and enjoy the great outdoors with as little impact on Mother Earth and Society as they can.

I'm a boondocker and very proud of it.

Boondoggle

a business trip, often to an exotic destination, in which you do more relaxing/fun stuff than work

During my boondoggle in Honolulu, the company put me up in a mighty nice resort hotel. I came home with a great tan.
