Talking with a fellow fabber this morning about this got me thinking.

Blue sky thinking.

Glass ceiling.

Going forward.

Meetings, rumbling tummies.

Shit coffee.

Gossip.

I've never worked in an office.

I'm imagining.

What other over used phrases, adjectives am I missing?

Thank fuck I've never worked in an office. I lack the diplomacy to listen to buzz word talk and I'd end up calling them all cocks.

Cow Path - it's not straight forward basically.

Silo thinking.

I dislike all that clap trap to be honest and just raise my eyebrows when they spout it all off.

"Thank fuck I've never worked in an office. I lack the diplomacy to listen to buzz word talk and I'd end up calling them all cocks. "

That's my problem. I lack the diplomacy to give a shit. I can't take such bollocks seriously. Anyone using such words automatically becomes a total bell end. So now I find myself surrounded by bell ends!

Whenever I hear phrases like "moving forward", "pop it in an e-mail" or something about "getting your ducks in order", a little part of me dies. I'm so in the wrong job.

When people drop buzzwords or phrases into my meetings I put on my confused face and innocently ask them to explain what they mean.

Apart from all the bullshit acronyms I have to suffer the business business buzz words are just a way of sugar coating shit..

Blue sky thinking - unachievable bollocks

Stove piped - one trick pony

Thinking outside the box - I've fucked up and desperate

Mission critical - I've fucked up and desperate

Put it on the back burner - I can't be arsed to so it now

Park that - I can't be arsed at all!!

Eat the frog - this task will make you sick

Run it up the flag pole - I'm a fuckwit!!

Shit sandwich - Business as usual

Fortunately my office is not very PC, so far today the office expletives have included bollocky bollocks, fuckwit, twat, bellend, fuck shite, cunt and today's best rant;fuck faced cock sucking knob jockey!!
