(1). A synonym for all over it, or more likely, another way to say “Oh crap, I totally forgot about that!”.
“Oh, hey Sue. My proposal…? It’s in flight!”
Props to Denise for the submission.
In Flight
RANDOM LINGO
Burning The Midnight Oil
(1). A term that can be taken in two very different ways. On one hand, you are the rockstar employee who works late often to better the firms footprint within your industry. On the other hand, you are that kiss-ass employee who works late often because you don’t have kids, friends, or anything worthwhile going on, which alienates your co-workers. Work is great.
Boss – “Hey Matt, great to see that even on a Friday night you’re still here working and burning the midnight oil, thanks for all your hard work.”
Everyone Else in the Office – “Matt is such a dick.”
Mental Health Day
(1). A day you take off when you just don’t feel like going into work. Like tomorrow.
“Hey Gladys, I’m going to take a mental health day today. Just tell the boss I called with a bad cough or something.”
