Management drivel

I recall one 'business analyst' (they're paid handsomely to turn up and state the bloody obvious).

Yes we are. Remember, if you aren't part of the solution then there's good money to be made prolonging the problem.

Many many many amusing managementisms.

That's post of the day for me. Very very amusing.

Thanks, I thought I'd just run it up the flag pole and see who saluted it.

I get this twice a day, everyday on a confra-call. Where we discuss the same things, over and over agian. Until I want to die, or start reading the Viz (which can be interesting when you're asked to comment on something after reading a page of Terry ****wit or the Bacons). It serves no purpose other than to pee me off. Low-hanging fruit is a favourite at the moment - "We've picked all the low-hanging fruit, it's time to get up that tree and take the ripe stuff home". AAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!

Depending on what you do for employment, I think they've just give you the justification for some workplace theft right there.

Sounds like something the boss from Drop The Dead Donkey would have said

Jill, could you come for a brief scuba in my think tank?

We've got to downsize our sloppiness overload.

There is just something I'd like to pop into your percolator, see if it comes out brown.

Helen, if I could just park in your mental multi-story a moment...

Sorry, Helen, had a bit of a composure shortfall earlier.

George, can we pool our brainspaces in a center of excellence?

A true legend - I just watched the whole lot end-to-end a week or two ago.



Our PHBs latest fad is "quick wins".

"Moving forward..." and "At the end of the day..." are the common ones around here. Drive me nuts.

I also hate when people put in emails, "If you have any questions contact your team leader or myself." Grrr.
