Happy hour
Happy hour is a specially scheduled period of time -- perhaps an hour or two in the late afternoon -- during which some restaurants give discounts for drinks, especially alcoholic drinks, thereby encouraging patrons to order more alcoholic drinks, and to drink them in that restaurant.
Some patrons presumably use this time to get drunk.
I was recently told that nowadays business organizations have happy hour at work for customers. I am sure it is not related to drinking? I am guessing it refers to a break period where employees can get together and relax. Why do employees refer to that time as happy hour?
