At the end of the day....

[Suzanne]

saw this and it made me larf

its a no brainer

surely we could do a trip report told in cliches....

....who wants to start?  My boss is off sick today, so while the cat's away....

i'll get me coat

[Rick Huggins]

<font color='#0000FF'>The robber said to his zulu accomplice, &quot;you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off and stop throwing those bloody spears at me&quot;

I'll get my coat too

[Dr Stevil]

Basically, I turned around and I said to them &quot;look it's diving 24/7 for me, so if you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen&quot;. THen we literally got on the boat, which at the end of the day it's basically what it's all about, QED touching base, so with all due respect you need to gain ownership of the dive and keep your eye on the ball if you want to stay ahead of the game....  

Anyone else played buzzword bingo when their boss is doing a speil &nbsp;

[Mr T.]

Yes mate. We start with a list and then tick them off as they are uttered - first to tick off the complete list can't (obviously) shout 'BINGO!' so we ask the boss to please repeat the last bit; that way we all know who's won!

We have something called Conor Bingo, which consists of possible swear words one of our options traders may use in a given day... there is ALWAYS a winner...

<font color='#000080'>I quite like the way at Dominos there's a great game for anyone new to answering the phones, and they are given a set phrase they have to work into the conversation. There was clear applause when a cocky lad that had just come in managed to get &quot;in the rear, in the carpark&quot; into things. Genius.

Isn't ther a massive article somewhere that doesn't actually say anything but is full of management-speak?

Yeah - I've about a dozen of the f***ing things on my desk right now!

[Mark Davies]

<font color='#000080'>We play a game at work on Sundays. We start with a list of phrases, usually song titles by a particular artist or films starring a particular actor. Whenever we call communications on the radio with the result of the job we've been sent to we have to try to include one of the titles in the transmission. The harder the phrase the more points you score. The winner gets to go home early.

Helps to brighten up a shitty day!

To be perfectly honest, at the end of the day,it's a game of two halves..you can't have your cake and eat it and if your not singing from the same hymn sheet there's no way your going to touch base going forarward at this moment in time...better to cut your losses, pick the low hanging fruit, then run it up the flagpole and see if anyone salutes it...
