Default The Random Whinging Pom Thread

There's a real lack of troll activity these days and everyone seem's so positive, so here's a thread purely for whinging.

Managers that use words or phrases like synergise, moving forward, flowstreams - what tossers. I've never had so many meetings recently where I come away thinking, what the hell did that bloke say?

So here's to random whinging

If you're still in the UK, does it count as whinging, or merely occupational therapy?
