As a former corporate bureaucrat and IT type, I like to keep up with that world even though I’m no longer part of it (and the only piece of it I miss is the paycheck).

I’m newly enough recovered from it that when TechRepublic ran this story on corporate buzzwords, I nodded in agreement with each of them:

(I don’t know if you have to register to see that or not.)

My favorite part of it, though was one of the comments:

“In one meeting I said “Bingo!” rather loudly.  In the meeting where I spoke loudly the meeting’s leader hesitated a bit, then pointed to me and said, “See, he gets it!”  Clueless… and a priceless story to tell people.  That project failed miserably.”
