slow day definition and meaning

What is the origin of the idiom "slow day" and when to use it?

The idiom "slow day" originated from business and commercial contexts in the late 19th/early 20th centuries. At this time, many retailers, shops, and service industry workplaces would see natural variations in their daily customer traffic, sales transactions, or order volumes. Over time, the phrase "slow day" has come to be commonly used in workplace contexts. It refers to periods when business or operations experience a significant decrease in activity and productivity compared to typical levels. This term is often used by workers to describe instances when there is a noticeable slowdown or lack of demand, resulting in downtime and a decrease in workload.
