<font color='#810541'>Essential NEW WORDS for the vocabulary in the Work Place;

BLAMESTORMING
Sitting around in a group, discussing why a deadline was missed or a project failed, and who was responsible.

SEAGULL MANAGER
A manager who flies in, makes a lot of noise, craps on everything, and then leaves.

ASSMOSIS
The process by which some people seem to absorb success and advancement by kissing up to the boss rather than working hard.

SALMON DAY
The experience of spending an entire day swimming upstream only to get screwed and die in the end.

CUBE FARM
The workforce's office filled with cubicles.

PRAIRIE DOGGING
When one yells or drops something loudly in the cube farm, and people's heads pop up over the walls to see what's going on. (This also applies to applause from a promotion because there maybe cake, coffee and doughnuts)

SITCOMs
Single Income, Two Children, Oppressive Mortgage. What yuppies turn into when they have children and one of them stops working to stay home with the kids or start a &quot;home business&quot;

STRESS PUPPY
A person who seems to thrive on being stressed out and whiney.

XEROX SUBSIDY
Euphemism for swiping free photocopies from one's workplace.

PERCUSSIVE MAINTENANCE
The fine art of whacking the crap out of an electronic device to get it to work again.

ADMINISPHERE
The rarefied organisational lawyers beginning just above the rank and file. &nbsp;Decisions that fall from the &quot;adminisphere&quot; are often profoundly inappropriate or irrelevant to the problems they were designed to solve. &nbsp;This is often affiliated with the dreaded &quot;administrivia&quot; - needless paperwork and processes.

OHNOSECOND
That minuscule fraction of time in which you realise that you've just made a BIG mistake.

FOUR-OH-FOUR
Someone who's clueless. From the World Wide Web error message &quot;404 Not Found,&quot; meaning that the requested document could not be located.

WOOFYS
Well Off Older Folks.

CROP DUSTING
Surreptitiously farting while passing thru a cube farm, then enjoying the sounds of dismay and disgust; leads to PRAIRIE DOGGING.
