Re: The Most Painfully Annoying Business Jargon
LOL. My current supervisor actually doesn't talk this way. Everything for him is in terms of a football game

Re: The Most Painfully Annoying Business Jargon
Ok I pick up my cell to call home and the office phone starts to ring so I hang up and pick up the office phone but no one is there. This happens 3 times and I start getting ticked that someone keeps hanging up on me when I realize I'm calling the office number and not my house hanging up on myself.

Re: The Most Painfully Annoying Business Jargon
Catch twenty-two.
It's an all-around term but my department just LOVES to use that constantly, sometimes 2-3 times in the same sentence.

Re: The Most Painfully Annoying Business Jargon
Oh, and the head of my department says, "If you want to maintain your salary-retention program... HARHARHAR."
For those who don't get that, he means your job. What kind of douche says stuff like that?
