W@nkword Bingo

I’ve started leaving meetings early and getting an email overview.

Deep dives.

Policy sprints.

Unpack.

Horizontal collaboration.

Just. Fark. The. Fark. Off.

Mrs TeeBee has a lady in her team that kept saying “sitrep” in nearly every conversation. This lady is a dead set office nightmare in general so no one wanted to open that pandoras box of verbal grief by asking what she means.

When mrs TeeBee got home, she asked me what it meant as no one could work it out, I had no idea…until i was playing Blackout and heard the term “Sit-Rep”. ah ha!

Situation Report, terms out the lady is ex-army reserve and feels her military w@nkwords are perfect for an internal marketing team. The office now uses “sit rep”, purely to mock this woman behind her back. It’s warranted.

Content. So sick of it. Can you create some content. That’s great content. We need more content.

It’s been annoying for ages now, but I nearly spewed up today when I saw football games at the MCG referred to as ‘content’.

“In the last four years, the extension of the AFL agreement that means the Grand Final is now guaranteed for 40 years at the MCG,” Smith told SEN Breakfast .

“What that means in 10 years when the Southern Stand is 35 years old, and it’s about the time you start thinking what you do with grand stands, we’ve got enough guaranteed content to borrow the billion dollars that we need to rebuild it.”

I didn’t really mean to end thread.

I heard a new one today: “populate” and also, “pre-populate”, used to describe the filling out of a form. If you can “pre-populate” that form, I’ll sign it off for you.

wtaf???
‘pre-populate’ would be an empty form, surely?

It was being used in various other contexts as well, that I really didn’t understand. It was like it had to be used in as much as possible.

Every time I heard it, after a while, I thought, “drink”.

Send a reply, telling them the form has been post-populated.
