Annoying business jargon that won't die

Get It In Writing: Copywriting - Business Jargon
It's shocking how many words are on this list that I've only ever heard in the workplace, normally by people that are trying to impress everyone. What's even more amazing is that I've heard people using over 90% of these words.Whomever put this list together, they certainly leveraged their human capital and hammered out this scalable list, instead of just going after the low-hanging fruit. I could blather on, and try to use more of these words to describe it, but I won't. It's how many there are.

Alternately, this list could be valuable for ESL teachers/ students that wanted to cover more "Business English" vocabulary on the cheap.

Enough cyberslacking, already! Get back to work!!!

Yakiniku - Korean Barbecue marinade

A big shout out to Yakiniku. It's Korean Barbecue, translated into Japanese. It's my birthday today, and I'm heading out with my friends for some delicious yakiniku at a restaurant in Vancouver.


The best recipe for a yakiniku marinade (that I just found but haven't tried) is:

2 tb sesame seeds
1 ts hot red pepper
1 ts minced garlic
1/2 c soy sauce
1/4 c sugar
1 ts rice vinegar

Thinly slice your beef, chicken or pork, and marinate it for at least 30 minutes. Yummy!!
