Annoying Office Jargon - Part III

‘Ok. We have the tracks down. We now need to decide what kind of train runs on them.’

choooo choooo

Let’s hang out here* for a while

*"here"meaning on a topic the speaker wishes to be a discussion point so an abstract rather than physical location.

Touch points

heard somebody who likes to go out and comes into work hungover described as “he likes to kick the ball hard”

not a bad one actually

This old useless cunt that works with me took a phone call from a recruitment consultant today in full earshot of almost everyone.

The funniest thing was when they obviously asked him about the project he was currently working on and he made a complete cunt
of himself describing it.

All parties must take a financial haircut for this project to proceed.

Have you been living under a rock since 2007?

I never said it wasn’t common just that it is annoying.

people saying eyeball instead of to compare/look at:mad:

It’s not really office jargon though. Financial jargon is a whole other topic.

“Lets have a conversation about…”
Why the fuck is everything a conversation now? Let’s not have a conversation about it, we’ve been discussing it for four fucking weeks now, let’s make a fucking decision. One of my client’s is really pissing me off with this shit at the moment, she’s American as well. I’m not sure how many different ways I can explain to her that if I don’t have a decision this week, her pet project will not happen.

" who will be doing the heavy lifting over there for us"… when referring to whatever minion is going to the data rollup.
" ill have a chat with R&D in order to grease the wheels", some moron uttered this today as in his errant opinion he felt his input could help us progress some issue

Heard last week, “we need a good best of breed strawman”.

“its like Picadilly circus in there”

When did meetings become ‘pitstops’?

At a pitstop earlier, and one guy asked another to document what the tallest poles in the tent were

Holy fuck, but this place has an amazing capacity to churn this shit out

A pity there weren’t any Polish lads in the room who could have pretended to be racially offended

Cheers @Mac - I may discreetly mention this next time I hear this abomination, and put the spooks up some of these goons
