My boss just reminded me to send STDs to all of our alumni, then wanted to know if I could help her navigate her new PMS.
I am clearly a four-year-old and had to giggle.
STD = save the date
PMS = project management system
Do you have any funny job jargon that would make no sense to people who don't work with you? When I was in academic publishing, my boss always referred to anal geometry. As a non-math person, it took me a while to figure out she was talking about analytic geometry.

That had me giggling. At work, we have this piece of equipment called the cooch roll and it seems like it's always messing up. I have to hide my face in meetings when the maintenance sup gets all mad and yells, "can someone please work on my cooch roll!" I might be a tad bit immature0

Okay if I ever had to discuss a "cooch roll" at work, I'd probably die. I'm too busy helping my boss navigate her PMS, anyway0

I work in sales and we are always told to "penetrate" our accounts. It makes me laugh regularly.0

Right, especially when you are the only female in the room and 5 hot maintenance guys get up and say they are going to inspect the cooch!
Sounds like a dirty job...you can probably avoid the STD's if you don't penetrate the accounts, but either way, be safe....rofl...*gigglesnort*0 -
In.

Ooh, I'll have to think of this one. The only one I can think of the moment is "I'm currently working on a BIMBO" (Buy-in-management-buy-out)0

I work for a motor company so we are always asking customers about their load - how big is your load? gross, because it has two meanings to me.
Do you need a rear shaft? What size shaft do you need?
We sell ball-screws... One of our customers name is Ball Screw... it's like I'm 12 years old... hehehe0 -

I don't have any funny ones. All we have are PDQ's which is a "Pretty Darn Quick" display. All you have to do is add the top banner and it's set up. Borrring0

We use POS too. It's not that funny. We do have a tool and my boss regularly asks people to "play with it and try to break it."
On a side note, I am the den mother for my son's tiger den. We went to the firehouse and every time the firefighter giving the tour said hose, one mom, who is a teacher kept cracking up. I am way too mature for that but I did make a really bad joke when the Emergency Services Unit came for pack night. One of the boys asked the officer if he ever shot an animal. The officer answered, a cougar to which the boy asked, what's a cougar....I am sure you can guess what happened next.0 -
WE WILL LOOK INTO IT - Forget it! We have enough problems for now.0

We have MUFs...minimum usage fees. Really??0
