• BANKER'S HOURS
  
  The hours a banker keeps. In idiomatic use, the phrase is often a synonym for a shorter-than-normal work day or work week, as banks used to close earlier than most businesses and take more holidays. In recent years, bankers have been keeping longer hours, with many bank branches open on Saturdays and even Sundays.
