P.I.O.

Stands for "Person (of) Indian Origin." Comes from, or has family ties to the country of India.
Two work colleagues at a technology company are talking and notice a large influx of people of Indian origin.
Biff: 'Man, who are all the recruits coming in lately?"
Griff: "You mean those P.I.O.s over there? They are here from the India office working onshore temporarily for the U.S. Healthcare Software."
Biff: "Working on U.S. Healthcare?! Do they know anything about the U.S. Healthcare system?"
Griff: "No, but apparently that's not a requirement for the job at hand...."
Biff: "Yep...why would anyone need to know the background/history of something they are working on? This will turn out great."
