Annoying Office Jargon - Part III

In my place every morning there is a team huddle. :frowning: What sort of twat thinks up these things?

I shat on the office floor.

No that’s not jargon. I just did it.

Shit banter.

That must your Aids kicking in then. :smiley:

Aids is something not to be joked about.

I was told that when I’m “going forward to look back at times.” I’ve stabbed my eardrums with the nearest available pens to try and stop the pain.

Not quite office related but i was just flicking around the channels there and ended up watching ‘Four Live’ on 1 for a minute. They were talking to some financial expert, i think mortgages may have been his area of expertise. While going through his spiel he finished with a little gem - “if you plan to fail, you fail to plan”. :lol:

:lol:

Almost as profound as Mac’s comment on Leitrim yesterday.

:rolleyes:

When people in a monthly meeting start a sentence with ’ Confucius once said ’ … Fuck off.

Heard this beauty earlier in a meeting

“if you multiple nothing with something you still get nothing”

I was a dinger at the zero times tables in school.

i should have qualified my initial remark by saying he was critiquing of my excel sheets

True story Chewy.

Try it out in excel

:lol:

Lately where I work all I am hearing is “we have set up a war room for this or that”. A fucking war room. when I heard it I thought we were being attacked or were going to start an invasion.

Just got an e-mail with the term “diarised” used in it. Jesus Wept :shakefist:

I hope you sent him a turse response.

Just practicing tomorrow morning’s work conversations.

Colleague: Did you have a nice Christmas?
Me: Ah yeah, it was quiet enough though. You?
Colleague: Yeah the same. Great not to be in here all the same!
Both of us: Ha ha ha.
Me: Did I tell you what’s shite?
Colleague: No, what’s that?
Me: Rugby football…

Working on a getting a tender out to a potential client in a “war room” setting.

The buzz of rushing to meet the delivery deadline of 5pm tomorrow is immense.

Burning Platform :rolleyes: :guns:
