radio silence
the necessary, but unfortunate silence that must be called when two people who have an awesome
first date, but have to part ways to different cities and become progressively less
productive as they text
like crazy.

When all work communication has stopped.
No phone calls or e-mails are received. No one leaves their
cubicle. All transmissions have
ceased. Typically happens at work when holidays and/or vacation approach.
Example:
I love
the days leading up to Christmas. We enforce a strict
radio silence policy in our department while I shop online and send text messages all day.
Breaking Radio Silence

When two people talk to eachother spontaneously after a long period of being mad at eachother or something else that doesn't allow the two persons 2 talk to eachother. Refers to how when intelligence vessels are forced to not use their radios so that their position can't be discovered. When these vessels do use their radios, it is refered to as "
breaking radio silence."
Breaking radio silence usually does not reestablish the relationship between those two people, it just allows one of them to
retrieve valuable information that they need.
