Program Supervisor Mel Sampat (that has been the subject of not 1 but two JobsBlog interviews) has a fantastic record of "Microsoft speak" terms that can be employed each in and outside of function. Funny stuff. Even if you don’t perform at MS, I’m sure you’ll find a lot of these familiar. My addition: No-Op. What it means at work: Someone (a co-worker, industry colleague, interview candidate - just kidding ... or am I? who doesn't quite measure up or pull their own weight. Example of non-work usage: "Wow. Tina's ex-boyfriend was a total loser. He had no job, he slept all day,
Office 2007 Key, and he stole money from her!" "I know. He was such a no-op." Got any other good ones? gretchen sorry ... no clever april fool's jokes here.
