RANDOM LINGO
Delta
(1). The difference between what something is and what it probably should be.
“So, you’re estimate said this would cost $1,000, but you just sent me a bill for $5,000. That’s what I would call a huge delta.”
Props to Paul A. for the submission.
Pound the Table
(1). To argue with (or complain to) management about something you feel passionate about (i.e. your comp).
“Look, Jerry … Pete’s just not going to sign off on a ten percent commission for this one. You can pound the table all you want, but it’s not going to happen.”
