Again, something emailed to me:
TESTICULATING. Waving your arms around and talking Bollocks.
BLAMESTORMING. Sitting around in a group, discussing why a
deadline was missed or a project failed, and who was responsible.
SEAGULL MANAGER. A manager who flies in, makes a lot of noise,
craps on everything, and then leaves.
ASSMOSIS. The process by which people seem to absorb success
and advancement by sucking up to the boss rather than working hard.
SALMON DAY. The experience of spending an entire day swimming upstream only to get screwed and die.
PRAIRIE DOGGING. When someone yells or drops something loudly
in a cube farm, and people's heads pop up over the walls to see that's
going on. (This also applies to applause from a promotion because there
may be cake.)
MOUSE POTATO. The on-line, wired generation's answer to the
couch potato.
SITCOMs. Single Income, Two Children, Oppressive Mortgage. What yuppies
turn into when they have children and one of them stops working to stay
home with the kids or start a "home business".
STRESS PUPPY. A person who seems to thrive on being stressed
out and whiny.
PERCUSSIVE MAINTENANCE. The fine art of whacking the crap out
of an electronic device to get it to work again.
ADMINISPHERE. The rarefied organisational layers beginning just
>above
>the rank and file. Decisions that fall from the "adminisphere"
are often profoundly inappropriate or irrelevant to the problems they
were designed to solve. This is often affiliated with the dreaded "administrivia" - needless paperwork and processes.
404. Someone who's clueless. From the World Wide Web error
message "404 Not Found," meaning that the requested document could not be located.
OHNOSECOND That minuscule fraction of time in which you realise
that you've just made a BIG mistake (e.g. you've hit 'reply all')
