I probably shouldn't text my Tinder date right now, I'm a little bit work drunk...
when someone you try to avoid at work catches you at your desk when you are not paying attention, thereby holding you there against your will while they spout their meaningless opinions about work goings-on
this can also occur in hallways/stairways/others' offices

Commonly found among the partners of consultants and salespeople, a state of "temporary widowhood" caused by the work or work travel schedule of a significant other. A woman, married or in a relationship, who is often left alone on a regular basis for significant periods of time (multiple days), enough to seem to be single or without companionship.

A woman with whom you work, whose proximity and frequent interaction leads to her becoming your primary female companion during work hours. She will become a substitute for your wife while you are at work, providing companionship and support, but without the emotional and sexual elements. For a time. You will eventually develop a huge crush on her, but will think you've kept it hidden. You haven't -everyone at work will think it's obvious.
Drone 1: Mr W and Mrs C really seem to make a good team.
Drone 2: Yeah, she's his work wife. He'd be lost without her.
Drone 1: Oh, she's just his work wife? So there's nothing going on there?
Drone 2 : No. But he wishes there was. So bad.

Government service jargon and employee shorthand for defrauding taxpayers. Used as a noun, and certainly never as a verb, it describes a state-of-being generally accompanied by euphoria and giddiness from stealing from the “man.” Except, in this case, it is not the “man”, it is the people. The state-of-being derives from sweet contracting side gigs while sitting at home on the government dime, saving both on childcare and gasoline for your new sweet SUV that you only have drive to “work” two days a week.
Although the state-of-being is generally continuous, it is sometimes interrupted by home chores, trips to Sam’s Club, meetings with side gig clients, and lines at Starbucks. The state-of-being is highly contagious among peers, and newcomers are taught to be giant assholes by the veterans until the impotent management says “fuck it, I’d rather these turds stay at home in bliss than interrupt my web surfing, and if I am the only one at work, it makes me look important.”
“I get so much more done when I work@home.”

Hollywood code for plastic surgery (such as boob jobs, brow lifts, liposuction, tummy tucks, etc.). Coined by comedienne Kathy Griffin, who has had plenty of "dental work" herself. Used to subtly indicate someone has plastic surgery.
"Ashlee Simpson has had some dental work done lately, if you know what I mean."

When you talk to someone just because nobody else will.
She’s way out of his league, she’s doing charity work just by talking to him.
