Silly Everyday IT Expressions

[EternalOptimist]

I once tried to send a visio diagram via email at work. One of those automated security warning emails bounced back to my email, it told me that I was in breach of some security policy. I phoned up the security guys who looked into my visio email attachment. Our 'FAG servers' were the cause of my problem. Their email scans for naughty words, fag being one of them.

I always love working at US companies

We had that exact problem. we had to move from 'FAG' to 'Gaylord butt munching slurping Jizzload' servers, and, to be honest, we havnt had a problem since
