Terms of Employment 
The secret lingo of the workplace

Has your doctor ever prescribed you some bug-juice ? Or sent you to the rheumaholiday department?
Have you ever read an article full of anecdata or reviewphemisms ?
Do you think you work in an adhocracy , for a seagull manager ?
Every workplace has its own words and phrases, from the Smurf juice used to clean plane toilets to the Peckham Rolexes , worn by criminals on release from prison. For Terms of Employment, Charlie Croker has patrolled hospital corridors, hung out by office water-coolers and lingered in shops to listen in on the conversations that only take place at work, gathering together the jargon we all use, often without thinking.
Whether you”re a white wig (new barrister), a heatseeker (ambitious employee) or an entreprenerd (geeky IT pioneer) Terms of Employment is an invaluable – and entertaining – guide.
