five o'clock
Workday's typical end
Five o'clock is the time when the hour hand points to five—either 5:00 AM or 5:00 PM.
The evening hour traditionally marks the end of the workday and the acceptable start of drinking: It's five o'clock somewhere.
A five o'clock shadow is the stubble visible on a man's face by late afternoon.
