circle work 

When true-believer employees stand around talking ecstatically to each other about how great the company is because of the "amazing work" they did; this typically creates a toxic smugness that pollutes the rest of the workplace.
Guy 1: Those dudes are being so loud - I can't even focus on my work.
Guy 2: Right? I can't believe they're still circle working over that sale they landed last month. It wasn't even that big of a deal.

Circle work 

Typically instead of a standard burnout at a set of lights or a stop sign, or perhaps at an intersection in front of a small group of people, “circle work” is kept for such occasions when a large group of people is available to view the display. The vehicle owner doesn’t just do a burnout. They try to burn that clutch and tyre tread down as much as possible whilst slowly spinning the car in circles so they can still a) view the audience, and b) not choke to death on the clouds of rubber smoke being churned up from the tyres.
They have degenerated into muddy, rum-soaked, all-night drinking sessions, complete with circle work by hungover ute drivers the following morning.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.
