Control-Slop
To mindlessly and/or carelessly copy and paste important information from one report to another without making sure that the information is actually relevant to where it's being put, or in the case of spreadsheets or other financials, not bothering to ensure that the totals continue to match or balance.
A clerk is being reprimanded in his manager's office:
Boss: You're going to have to pay closer attention to how you update our reports.
Employee: What are you talking about?
Boss: This. It's like you were someplace else when you did this control-slop and pasted last week's data into this week's report and never bothered to check it.

Phone Grope
Grabbing at pockets, patting yourself down to make sure you have your cellphone and don't need to turn around and go back home for it. This behaviour tends to be heightened in people who also have a habit of going back to check the locks on the doors several times before leaving home.
Dude, stop that.
What?
Quit the phone grope. You're always grabbing at your pockets as soon as we're on the road. Didn't you remember your cell?

Ice-Agedly
Change that happens slower than a snail's pace. Things that take so long to happen that a person could be born, grow up, get old, and die before anything happens.

bully lawsuit
A company endures a bully lawsuit when it keeps someone on for fear, real or imagined, that they will take the company to court if let go.
An underperforming minority employee is kept on, even though their file requires its own file cabinet, because the employer fears they will play the race card.
