Recent permie "buzz words"

[original PM]

No No play the game

make some absolutlely crap phrases up and see if anyone ever questions them

more than likely not as they feel they will not have been pushing the envelope enought to synergise their tongue with the bosses azz if they are not up to speed on this weeks round of wank words.

One of the tech architects at my current gig loves "Instantiated", in context it is obvious what he means, but "built" would have been a lot easier and as applicable.

Has to be the phrase: -

"going forward"

Especially when employed as a conclusion to any debate where the speaker assumes that no come-back is a) necessary, or b) possible.

e.g:-

The project is a disaster and you are all screwed, and sacked, except for me, and I will ensure the project works out for the best, GOING FORWARD.

People who say "Going Forward" should have a broom handle inserted into their fundament and waved aloft - preferably aflame.

[Peoplesoft bloke]

I hate "going forward" "one to one" and the fact that everything is "grab" - grab lunch grab a coffee etc etc

[GreenerGrass]

"Touch base"

"Quick win"

[Advocate]

"Touch base"

"Quick win"

It always makes me feel a little violated...

[Iron Condor]

"Quick win"

And the other is 'low hanging fruit'.

And during a meeting 'lets discuss that offline'.

In an interview i was once told, Mr X has been promoted so we need you as a 'backfill'.
