Q: Does "salt mines" have any specific meaning?

Wil HuangIn the movie Easy A, the character Todd said "See you at salt mines" to Olive when they met at Melody's party. What does salt mines mean? Does it really mean "a mine for salt"?

Google hits 2 and 3 answer that question: "See you at salt mines"‌​. The 1st hit is that question.

@Rathony The word-usage tag needs a better description. Is showing definitions required? What constitutes "research" for W-U question? - Like Word-Choice, you have to give us the words. The question does have two example sentences, which weren't even asked for, but were given. - I'm going to have to skip that one.

The one I linked needed a title edit: Does "See you at salt mines"‌​ have any specific meaning? But then I stopped because that title is google-able. I'm not sure if it should be edited now or later. I just got over editing some spam too soon, so....
