D.A.F.C Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Not corporate speak as such, but when I email something to a certain department I without fail get a reply saying either "DW" or "will DW". I don't need to know this, sort it out in your team and leave me alone please. I know you will "DW" as it's your job. Destroy Wendy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hillonearth Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Management in our place came up with the lunatic idea of training us to do multiple jobs with absolutely no overlap in skills, so we could be shite in five or six different areas as opposed to good in one, and they could throw bodies at whatever part of the organisation they'd fucked up most recently. When taken to task over it, their argument was "It's not multitasking, we're calling it multiskilling..." Aye, and we're calling in the union. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddieInDundee Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 The managerial hierarchy above myself at my pub have an annoying habit of referring to the pub as 'the business'. It makes me really angry. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 The managerial hierarchy above myself at my pub have an annoying habit of referring to the pub as 'the business'. It makes me really angry. Sounds kind of like my rant previously in the thread where two hairdressers I know called their customers their 'clients'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11thHour Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 My hairdresser uses the word clients. 'Cause its a pure fancy chopshop. A new one i've been hearing this week is "bun fight".
