RANDOM LINGO
Hoteling
(1). The ridiculous corporate practice of punishing your employees by assigning them a new desk each day. One day, you’re sitting next to the hot babe from HR, and the next, it’s Earl from Data Management Tech who likes to sing along to the soft rock station he’s streaming on his Toughbook.
“So, our company started hoteling last month. It’s supposed to foster the exchange of ideas across different areas of the firm. The only problem is – all we talk about is how much we hate hoteling.”
Grayhair
(1). The person on your team that you parade in front of clients to make them feel more comfortable that you all have actual experience.
“Let’s get Dan in on the meeting next week. I think having a grayhair in the room will give our pitch a little more gravitas.”
