I just want to give you a heads up that we're probably going to need to workshop it.

I've got a window back end of Q3, if you'd like me to run with it ?

(is that one of Chubby's?)

Chubby's oft repeated phrases include the words 'bottom line' and 'real money'.

I'm not saying he's tight... just finacially astute!

 

[Hiney]

Can't we just draw up a Straw Man and be done with it?

 

[Titanic]

i like your thinking Hiney, but can we pop that one in the fridge until the washup at the end of this session ?

Jon used "low hanging fruit" with me a while ago in a conversation about the likely effectiveness of some of my work in business settings and I had to ask him what he meant.... (this managementspeak is a steep learning curve...!)

do you know your Magnetic North?

 

[Dave the OAP]

whilst you are at it, we need to "manage the leverage" and "re-allign the continu-um"





American Disaster recovery speak


BTW My all time favourite is


" We need to assess the critical needs of our customers and re-allign their expectations"

 

[Northstander]

Lets raise this up the flagpole and see who salutes it guys?

 

[John Boy]

I'm so glad I don't work in an office!

 

[clapham_gull]

The one that drives me mad is

"can we PARK that one for now..."


How f**king stupid are these people. That just pick up on something that someone else has said, irrespective of the fact that there are PERFECTLY good words SENSIBLE words available for them to use.

The irony is that they believe themselves to be intelligent, whilst to me they just sound stupid and unable to express themselves.

 

[Dave the OAP]

well John Boy, if you ever do want to, " I will get my people to chew the fat with your people, look for a window and do a power lunch"

 

[Moshe Gariani]

as long as the batting order has been firmed up before close of play....

Essentially, we can't give the punters what they want, but we'll take em down the pub a couple of times of year to shut them up ?

 

[Wilka]

Pro activally going forward as a team

 

[Seagullible]

just as long as we're all singing from the same sheet

 

[Stinky Kat]

Listen up guys,

"theres no i in team but there is a me"

"lets focus on delivery"

No focus on speaking in plain English you Blairite twonk!

breaths out anger, breaths in love

AGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!

 

[crasher]

I'm not convinced this thread is fit for purpose.

Let me think about how I can add value then perhaps we can agree an action pad for some joint deliverables.

 

[Eggmundo]

I think it's great, meetings are so much more interesting when someone says "I think we need to pick the fruit of the lowest hanging branches" or "If your gonna eat an elephant, start with the trunk" etc.
You just know it's going to be a good one and keeps you awake in anticipation for the next!

BINGO!

 

[Vlad the Impala]

Why use English when so few on here can write it or spell it properly?
