Geof Hammond's Workplace phrasebook

Thursday, July 13, 2006


The Fast Food Call and Response
To answer any enunciation of “McRib” with the reply “Chomp.”

The Condoleezza Rice

Asking a colleague a series of television trivia questions climaxing in a mortifying exposure of their ignorance of current affairs.

The C-Suite Mockingbird
Adopting the banter and personality of a 1950’s executive to mock organizational delusions of grandeur featuring such phrases as “get Play on the horn,” and “Maaah....Joanne, fire up the VCR...I want to watch this Play video, maaah.”

The Hammond Heart
The empty sensation you feel inside when a valued teammate leaves behind a wealth of happy memories and cultural legacy, but alas, not himself.

cheers Geof.
