OFFICE JARGON EXPLAINED
Are your colleagues in need of "a bite of the reality sandwich"?
The phrase ranks among the UK's most cringeworthy workplace jargon, according to a list compiled by recruitment firm Office Angels.

New office buzz words also include "blamestorming" - debating with colleagues why a deadline was missed and who was responsible.

And "boss-spasming" - getting busy with a lot of work as soon as your boss enters the room.

Other workplace lingo noted by the recruitment firm included "we need to bottom this out" and "the juice ain't worth the squeeze".

Office daydreamers can tell their bosses they are engaging in "workspace specific perceptual abstraction".
