While I agree entirely that Robbie William's Rock DJ should be slung out of the nearest window, (preferably with him to follow), may I suggest that the next time you are tempted to use the phrase 'Touch Base' that you have a nice long bath in frozen peas until you've regained your senses.

Wanders off muttering about 'touch base' and other useless management speak and expecting better

Oh please... 'touch base'... pah!

I suppose next week we'll be calling the PM thingy a 'communication facillitator.'

Anyway, Ed was asking for it.... I'm banned again aren't I?
More than likely....lol

And will you answer your bloody PM?
I look forward to shooting the breeze with the Ed, same time next week.

Sorry! I'm aware that I've got messages in there but I can't access it at work and my home one is down and I promise I'll try and sort it over the weekend!

Perhaps you can have a brain storming session.
My boss started saying 'touch base later', but he soon stopped when I started giving him queried looks & on the phone said "Do you mean see you later?".

Same as 'Ball park figure' instead of estimate, or rough figure - aaarrrggg!

We had worked together for a quarter of a century mind!

Sorry Ed.
I like ball park figure, and robbie...you all need your ears boxing missus
I'm just off to scrape my testicles.
dont forget to clean the spatter off the walls whiffey
lol whiffey!

Sorry cazz - I'm not too keen on all these Americanisms - must be me age! ;o}
I say them because it makes me feel young and interesting smudge :D
I think I'll stick to moisterising cazz - that' makes me feel young, he, he! lol. ;o}
you have to think outside the box going forward, China Doll. Time for a new headset. It's all about delivering solutions. Oh, and exceeding expectations, of course
CD, you need to step outside the box and do some blue sky thinking. You need to see the big picture. If the Ed does decide to ban you then she is only removing the low hanging fruit before looking at the tougher problems and scalable solutions. So rather than taking things offline, take ownership, upskill and talk turkey.

You owe it to yourself. You deserve to be a winner. Have a nice day now.

I'm just being proactive in pointing out that the idea that the Ed has brought to the table is just not floating. I suggest we have a lunch time pow wow about it and see if we can't thrash this thing out and come out guns blazing ready to go the whole hog and really facilitate our expectations of the blog rather than just ticking the box to say we've read it.
Wow. What is this language you do so speak???....

Get on with it.
Put up and shut up.
If you cant stand the heat???

That's the only management talk we ever had lol
what about thinking outside the box.
I know where you're coming from CD. We all need to get our ducks in a row and do a brain dump (y�all).

The best way to push the envelope would be some joined-up thinking, taking a helicopter view and then drilling down. Going forward we need to be singing from the same hymn sheet and providing that don�t involve Rock DJ, we might be onto to a winner with the USA Beditor. Hell yeah. Gimme 5.
