clocks out
Finishes the workday
Clocks out means to record the end of one's work shift, originally by punching a time clock: She clocks out at five every day.
Figuratively, to clock out is to disengage mentally or stop paying attention: He clocked out halfway through the meeting.
In darker slang, clocking out can mean dying or killing someone.
