ALL office-speak. For example:


touch base

follow-up

from 30,000 feet

let's take that off-line

circle back

in terms of


etc., etc., etc....

 

 

Wow, those are all really common around my office. Some other similar ones:

 

- pull up

- loop back

- close the loop

- vet (as in "we need to vet that with our business customers" or "that notion is not fully vetted")

- resonate

- optics

- leading notion

- guiding principle

 

I don't necessarily *hate* any of these and may actually use them here and there. But they stay in the office.

"teh" enough already, really. Learn how to {censored}ing type....basically any kind of juvenile texting language

 

"all day" as per dB, that joke has completely run its course

 

"Goddy" (Thanks MC) oh yeah, that's bull{censored}- why don't you guys take that to your own blog or something?
