wine and dine -大吃大喝
The reverse also applies. Antagonistic relationships with co-workersare always likely to make working life miserable. A study conducted byValerie Good of Grand Valley State University found that loneliness has anadverse effect on the performance of salespeople. Among other things,they start spending more onwining and diningtheir customers. The onlything worse than a salesperson who sees you as a way to make money isone who wants your company.
