| May 6, 2021 at 2:17 | comment | added | Codewife_101 | @rossum I added the context to this expression. I'm not a performer. I was interviewing for a job and wanted to express that all slots in my calendar are taken, so I thought I would use this expression. Sometimes I scheduled three calls one after another on the same day. | |

Taking it more loosely, I would consider it to possibly mean that there are already so many booking that a further one would be a significant imposition (e.g. there is still one more slot open, but filling it would mean no lunch break left over). | |
