    On my last role, a new VP arrived. I was working in the PMO office, but he decided as there was also an IT PMO group and we worked in sales operations, he decided he wanted to rename it.

    He then said, he would name it the Field Automation Group. Yeah, you can imagine how many seconds it took us to shoot that down. We landed up with Business Automation Team (BAT) and then duly implemented a BATMAN, BATGIRL and the secretary the BATBIKE!

    And the flaming "00"

    (in Germany "00" is shorthand for the toilets, for those who are unaware)
