Okay, kids, it's time for corporate speak! Kim and I were talking about our dislike for the office jargon, so we started putting together all of the phrases to make it more interesting. They get better with each bullet point :)
* Once you have the matrix of deliverables, you can escalate it to me by EOB or ASAP
* I'll scrub through the document, think outside then box, then ping the stake-holders for their feedback.
* the VP of HR needs your FY09 numbers, soup to nuts, by COB
* Many thanks, I look forwarding to pinging your low hanging fruit with my touchpoint very soon.
Now, it's your turn. What kind of corporate speak to you detest????

"Let's take this offline"...used in tech meetings as a deflection when you're presented with an argument you either cannot or do not want to address during the meeting.
For K - "Everything will be exactly the same; you'll only be paying your own salaries."
"we're going to need you to work on Sunday..."
I'll have that ready for you to put in front of upper management for signatures by Friday.
