Re: The Most Painfully Annoying Business Jargon

Anytime an off-topic subject comes up in a meeting, someone will always say "We'll talk about that more off-line". Off-line? I didn't realize we were on-line!

"Low hanging fruit" makes me want to jump out a window.

Six Sigma always drove me nuts during operations management and statistics.

Ugh I hear you there. I hated Operations Mgmt. I was lucky to have a good prof who kept things interesting, but man the material in that class was a bore.

I hate this process/group! HATE THEM!

We have no idea what you do, so lets watch you for a week and then after a week we will tell you exactly how you can do your job more efficent.

Yeah right I have been doing my job forever and in a week of watching me you are going to tell me how to do it quicker.

In the history of the work force most people over time of doing the same job day in and day out figure out the most efficent way to do it, SO THEY HAVE LESS WORK TO DO.
