Thank God you don't live

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 all over everything
and then leaves.
ADMINISPHERE: The rarefied organizational
layers beginning just above the rank and file.
Decisions that fall from the adminisphere are
often profoundly inappropriate or irrelevant to
the problems they were designed to solve.
FLIGHT RISK: Used to describe employees who
are suspected of planning to leave the company
or department soon.
OHNO-SECOND: That minuscule fraction of time
in which realize that you've just made a BIG
mistake. Like making the selection that reformats
your hard drive.
PERCUSSIVE MAINTENANCE: The fine art of
whacking the crap out of an electronic device
to get it to work again.

A lawyer's dog, running about unleashed, b-lines
for the local butcher shop and steals a roast off
the counter.
The butcher goes to the lawyer's office and asks,
"if a dog, running unleashed, steals a piece of
meat from my store, do I have a right to demand
payment for the meat from the dog's owner?"
"Absolutely," the lawyer responded.
The butcher immediately shot back, "Good! You
owe me $7.99 for the roast your dog stole from
me this morning."
The lawyer, without a word, writes the butcher
a check for $7.99. A few days later, the butcher,
browsing through his mail, finds an envelope
from the lawyer.
The contents read "Consultation: $25.00."
