“jargon” is definitely one of those words that seems to deny its own existence if you use it too many times in quick succession..

I can confirm this is correct. Say it fast enough and it sounds more like 'gun jar'.

C-suite –

It's like trap 2, but it has one of those awful toilet seats that have a gap at the front, hence the 'C'.

Can't post a link, but if you Google the extract below you get a pdf of a sideshow with a lot of management bull plus the way it turned out.

C-Suite

What the heck is that?

Think of it as a website where you don’t get logged out, to then have to log back in again..

HTHs.

I’m saddened by the lack of granularity and protein in this thread.

The new management device in our place is if they come up with a really really bad idea and people point this out they always respond with “but people have worked hard on this and you shouldn’t attack it, in fact we should all thank them for their hard work”. Yes people have worked hard and still produced a really bad idea!
