Had a Telco Vendor tell me today that we needed to "ping" another vendor about an issue...
Common sense is not a gift it's a curse. Those of us who have it have to deal with those that don't.... Be careful which toes you step on today, they might be connected to the foot that kicks your butt tomorrow. You can't scare me, I have children.

We need to circle back and get consensus on this so lets bring the discussion offline until we get buyin.
Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS. "And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs" -- Robert Frost

no. and to make it worse, she didn't say it once, but at least 5 times in the same conversation. What, because I'm the IT guy you think that saying "ping somebody" makes you sound like you are using relevant terms? jeesh I felt like reaching through the phone to slap her. I ping a computer, I do NOT ping other people, I do not want to know that much info about them..... :-D

I love "app" actually. But I apply it to any application, which seems to irk the common folk, who seem to think it only applies to smartphones. :doh:
I often use the word "program", as in "I have a program I wrote to do just that!" and many of the (younger) people I know say - you mean an "app"? I don't know how to answer that. If I say yes, an app. then they will expect me to show them it running on my Blackberry; if I say no, it's a program (which is what I usually say since saying it is a "application" makes it sound like a coat of paint or something more obnoxious to me) then they look at me like some kind of dinosaur!:~

"We need to onboard new processes in order to align to our key business initiatives to realise our objectives" I had a go and I think, roughly translated, that this means "The old way of doing it was shit, lets do something else" "We're making a strategic response to market conditions", or "You're all fired!" Personally I just like to string together buzzwords in meetings and see how many managers agree, and then ask them how we should "realise" the initiative.

paradigm especially when you realise that in any single meeting where it is used, the odds are that at least 75% of the attendees dont actually know what it means. (and that usually includes the person who just used it)
You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.
