Go, sir - it’s the end of the workday (9)

@hannah
happyhour?

@caffetiel nope!

@hannah "end of the workday" jumps out at me as providing a final letter, but I don't know if it's the e from "the" or the y from "workday"

I am so close at seeing an anagram in the first part, but can't land it... :(

@chimerror “end” is a red herring and theres no anagrams

@hannah
What an absolutely useless clue I hate this

@caffetiel it's actually a straightforward charade clue, just a fairly clever one

@hannah this reads like it can only possibly be a double definition but

@eevee it's not but it is fairly straightforward

@hannah My guesses are LEAVEWORK, COMMUTING, or HAPPYHOUR

@jordan not quite! it's a single word

@hannah what cryptic is this? (i already have too many to keep up with but it’s fun to imagine i might have time for a third)
