RANDOM LINGO
Bomb Thrower
(1). Someone who always asks some embarrassing “gotcha” question just before a decision’s about to be made.
“So, we had the prospect on the ropes, ready to sign us up, and his lousy, bomb thrower consultant asks us to walk him through how we pass along our costs to customers. I have no freakin’ idea how we do that! I’m a salesman, not a goddamned accountant!”
Maker-Checker Environment
(1). A fancy way to tell someone they need someone else to check their work … all the time.
“Hey Evan, I’m thinking we need to establish a maker-checker environment for depositing the cash from the register at the end of the day. I’m just finding it hard to believe it when you tell me everyone in here yesterday was just browsing.”
