If you were born before 1997 then you probably think you know what the phrase \u201cout of pocket\u201d means, but once again Gen Z<\/strong><\/a> is here to expose just how many grey hairs you really have.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cOut of pocket,\u201d for those who are interested in what the dictionary has to say, is defined as the transfer of on-hand cash from one person or entity to another, according to the Merriam-Webster, Cambridge, and Oxford dictionaries. Examples include \u201che paid for the bill out-of-pocket\u201d or \u201cshe paid out-of-pocket instead of putting it on a credit card.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the workplace setting, \u201cout of pocket\u201d is often used as slang in lieu of \u201cout of office.\u201d On any given day you could pay for lunch \u201cout of pocket\u201d and then also be \u201cout of pocket\u201d between 2pm and 3pm for a doctor\u2019s appointment.<\/p>\n

However, the young denizens of the world have now commandeered this phrase and replaced it with something a little more lively. So, before you start saying you\u2019ll be out of pocket next Friday, know that your Gen Z co-workers are likely snickering at the thought of you getting up to no good. <\/p>\n

What does \u201cout of pocket\u201d mean to Gen Z?<\/h2>\n
