NEW WORDS FOR 2004


Essential additions for the workplace vocabulary

TESTICULATING

Waving your arms around and talking Bollocks.

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, ****s on everything, and then leaves.

ASSMOSIS

The process by which people seem to absorb success and advancement by sucking up to the boss rather than working hard.

SALMON DAY

The experience of spending an entire day swimming upstream only to get screwed and die.

CUBE FARM

An office filled with cubicles.

PRAIRIE DOGGING

When someone yells or drops something loudly in a cube farm, and people's heads pop up over the walls to see that's going on. (This also applies to applause from a promotion because there may be cake.)

MOUSE POTATO

The on-line, wired generation's answer to the couch potato.

SITCOMs

Single Income, Two Children, Oppressive Mortgage. What yuppies turn into when they have children and one of them stops working to stay home with the kids or start a "home business."

STRESS PUPPY

A person who seems to thrive on being stressed out and whiny.

XEROX SUBSIDY

Euphemism for swiping free photocopies from one's workplace.

ERCUSSIVE MAINTENANCE

The fine art of whacking the cr*p out of an electronic device to get it to work again.

ADMINISPHERE

The rarefied organizational layers beginning just above the rank and file.

Decisions that fall from the "adminisphere" are often profoundly inappropriate or irrelevant to the problems they were designed to solve.

This is often affiliated with the dreaded "administrivia" needless paperwork and processes.

404

Someone who's clueless. From the World Wide Web error message "404 Not Found," meaning that the requested document could not be located.

OHNOSECOND

That minuscule fraction of time in which you realize that you've just made a BIG mistake (e.g. you've hit 'reply all')

WOOFies

Well Off Older Folk.

CROP DUSTING

Surreptitiously farting while passing through a cube farm, then enjoying the sounds of dismay and disgust; leads to PRAIRIE DOGGING.

Hey, it was interesting that the word 'Testiculating' appears and that a certain manager around here has acquired the 'pet' name 'Handjob Nobbs'.  kinda go hand in hand really, if you'll pardon the pun.
