I received this list today and was reminded of my 24 years in the corporate world. I wish I had known these terms then!
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, messes up everything, and then leaves.
KEYBOARD PLAQUE - the disgusting buildup of dirt and crud found on computer keyboards.
OHNOSECOND - that minuscule fraction of time in which you realize that you've just made a BIG mistake.
PRAIRIE DOGGING - when someone yells or drops something loudly in a "cube farm" (an office full of cubicles) and all the co-workers' heads pop up over the wall to see what's going on.
PERCUSSIVE MAINTENANCE - the fine art of whacking the daylights out of an electronic device to get it to work again.
Thanks to Doris for sharing!
In His name,
Chaplain Sam Houchins
