Latest buzzwords to add to your corporate vocabulary:
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, shits over
every thing and then leaves.
Blowing your buffer - Losing your train of thought.
Salmon day - The experience of spending an entire day swimming upstream only
to get screwed and die in the end.
Chainsaw consultant - An outside expert brought in to reduce the employee
headcount, leaving the brass with clean hands.
CLM - Career-limiting move - Used among microserfs to describe ill-advised
activity. Trashing your boss while he or she is within earshot is a
serious CLM.

leave the company or department soon.
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.
Percussive Maintenance - The fine art of whacking the crap out of an
electronic device to get it to work again.
Yuppie Food Stamps - the ubiquitous $20 bills spewed out of ATMs everywhere.
Often used when trying to split the bill after a meal: "We all owe $8 each,
but all anybody's got is yuppie food stamps."
