The Dead-zone

A really slow night of sales, particularly pertaining to bar and restaurant business.

A type of punishment your partner puts you in. (This is similar to being in the doghouse.)

A type of immune response that may take a week or so to recover before returning to work. (Usually happens with people of low stamina and thin blood.)

Man last Tuesday was the lamest night of sales in a long time! It was like the Dead-zone got resurrected and then just suddenly shriveled and died!
