Re: Buzz Words
It def seems to be the in word at the moment. My line manager keeps quoting it to me, when i ask him what it means and what he whats from it he just shrugs his shoulders and say dunno, how am i suposed to plan a revision with "value added time" if no one knows what it means.dvbuk55 wrote:I definitely like that one philthy "value added time", I have absolutely no idea what on earth it means but I can assure you I will be using it tomorrow to the "management" on one pretext or another and I'll just bet they nod sagely without realising it means feck allPhilthyPhil wrote:The manager doing our collections revision keeps talking about 'value added time'. We have no idea what this is and I'm not sure he does either, but I assume it means doing more work in less time. When I asked if we were going to get more hours in for the tipping and segging of collections mail this was all he blabered on about, so I took that as a no![]()

So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
