24/7
在商業和工業領域裏,通常是指所提供的不間斷的服務,即不管任何時候、白天或黑夜,都有營業。[1]這樣的服務一般都能在超級市場、自動提款機、加油站、餐館、賭場、酒店、便利店和政府的警察部門、消防部門等見到。一些工廠和公用事業因生產作業和基礎設施運作不能間斷,也採24小時運作,例如煉鋼廠、發電廠、晶圓廠及電信公司等。
24/7 是一天24小時,一星期7天的縮寫,即全天候營業、提供服務且全年無休。
在实际生活中,不断加大的压力和日益严峻的经济环境使得員工喘不过气。
24/7可以用來夸张。用法示例:"The government seems to think that anyone in business has big profits, so they make us pay big taxes." he explains wearly. "I work 24/7 to see my profits reduced to peanuts."
