Well Punk at least office jargon has been " taken to the next level" from when female staff were referred to as " birds" " she's fit" or " bunny". Those were the days when " Be there or be square" "and " feel the funk" were at least " buzz" words I could understand the meaning of. Nowadays I find myself having to desifer the meaning to "buzz" words such as " square the circle" which I think is supposed to sound clever, but actually I have no idea what the guy is saying.
Anyway I must get back to my " strategic staircase" which I think means continue on my business plan. So I won't let " the grass grow to long" with this post " may the force be with you" and I hope we can " touch base latter"

"Sometimes, I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis."

Nah... the worst, by far is this...
"We've been working on this for the past month" ... in reality you know that only a call or an email has been sent and most people involved are running away from the responsibility of having to make a decisions on it.
