A CLARIFICATION
- To confuse the situation with facts.
A CONFERENCE
- Organised confusion during coffee break.
A MEETING
- Coffee break.
A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT APPROACHES ARE BEING TRIED
- We are still pissing in the wind.
A PROGRAM
- Any assignment that cannot be completed by one telephone call.
ALL NEW
- Parts not interchangeable with the previous design.
CHANNEL
- The trail of inter office memos.
CLOSE PROJECT CO-ORDINATION
- We know who to blame.
CONSULTANT (OR EXPERT)
- Any ordinary guy more than 50 miles from home.
CO-ORDINATOR
- The guy with a desk between two expediters.
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION IS ASSURED
- We are so far behind schedule the customer is happy to get it delivered.
ENERGY SAVING
- Achieved when the power switch is off.
EXPEDITE
- To confound confusion with commotion.
EXTENSIVE REPORT IS BEING PREPARED ON A FRESH APPROACH TO THE PROBLEM
- We just hired three kids fresh out of college.
GIVE US THE BENEFIT OF YOUR THINKING
- We'll listen to what you have to say as long as it doesn't interfere with what we've already done.
GIVE US YOUR INTERPRETATION
- I can't wait to hear this bull!
INFORMED SOURCE
- The guy who told the guy you just met.
IT IS IN THE PROCESS
- It is so wrapped up in red tape that the situation is about hopeless.
LET'S GET TOGETHER ON THIS
I'm assuming you are as confused as I am.
LIGHTWEIGHT
- Lighter than RUGGED.
LOW MAINTENANCE
- Impossible to fix if broken.
MAJOR TECHNOLOGICAL BREAKTHROUGH
- It works OK, but looks very hi-tech.
PLEASE NOTE AND INITIAL
- Let's spread the responsibility for the screw up.
PRELIMINARY OPERATIONAL TESTS WERE INCONCLUSIVE
- The darn thing blew up when we threw the switch.
RE ORIENTATION
- Two weeks after vacation.
RELIABLE SOURCE
- The guy you just met.
RUGGED
- Too damn heavy to lift!
SEE ME or LET'S DISCUSS
- Come into my office, I'm lonely.
TEST RESULTS WERE EXTREMELY GRATIFYING
- We are so surprised that the stupid thing works.
THE ENTIRE CONCEPT WILL HAVE TO BE ABANDONED
- The only person who understood the thing quit.
TO ACTIVATE
- Add more names to the memo.
TO GIVE SOMEONE THE PICTURE
A long confused and inaccurate statement to a newcomer.
TO IMPLEMENT A PROGRAM
- Increase overheads.
TO NEGOTIATE
- Meeting of minds without knocking together of heads.
UNDER ACTIVE CONSIDERATION
- We are looking in the files for it.
UNDER CONSIDERATION
- Never heard of it.
UNIMPEACHABLE SOURCE
- The guy who started the rumour.
WE ARE MAKING A SURVEY
- We need more time to think of a answer
WE WILL LOOK INTO IT
- Forget it! We have enough problems for now.
WE WILL LOOK INTO IT
- We hope you will forget it too.
YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT
- One finally worked.
- To confuse the situation with facts.
