The Long Lunch

The Long Lunch is the act of sending an employee to a lunch without pay and often without an end.

Jordi: "Hey Alex, have you seen William recently?"
Alex: "I think Jason sent him on the long lunch."
Jordi: "I guess we'll never see him again. Poor bloke."

Long liquid lunch

The long liquid lunch was once a time honored tradition where white collar workers got together, usually on Friday, over lunch to network and discuss business matters. It was supposed to be a think tank of esoteric minds, but really everybody just got mindlessly tanked during the course of the afternoon and never made it back to work.
