cc-ebomber
Machiavellian colleague who regularly sends out passive-aggressive emails, cc-ing everyone, whose sole purposes are to: take credit for other people’s work; cast aspersions on colleagues; and give their superiors the impression that they’re taking care of business. As you might expect, cc-ebombers are much-loved by ill-informed management, and much-despised by those who actually have to work with them.

networker
A person who treats human beings like instruments and pretends to care about people they don’t care about because they think they might be useful to them at some point in the future. Networkers are often very good at active listening.

off the charts
In Garrison Keillor’s Lake Wobegon, “all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average.” But in the real world, exceptional people are exceptional. If you say “off the charts” often, there’s something wrong with your charts.
