Warm and Fuzzy Feeling

Catagory: rant

I've been working in the corporate world for a little over a year now (most of my career was in DoD). Some words/phrases I keep hearing people use that really annoy the hell out of me.

Techies and marketing folks love to use buzzwords. Sometimes I can't even understand something as simple as a trouble ticket because the buzzword level is so high. When I get to be the maker of rules, the heavy use of buzzwords will be a punishable offense.

For more ranting, check out this beautiful screed on the use of buzzwords. And of course, I'd be a fool not to mention the Plain English Campaign.
