Keuregglect: a portmanteau (blend) of the words "Keurig" (the famed K-cup coffee machines) and "neglect" (carelessness, lack of attention to). Examples of Keurigglect include: 1.) never-changing the residual water in the tank so that eventually this water becomes viscious and germy, or 2.) leaving the spent K-cup in the holder after use. ("koo-reh-GLEKT")(n, v)(adj: Keurigglectful "koo-reh-GLEKT-ful")
The teachers' lounge Keurig had a nasty, moldy K-cup stuck in the holder because someone in a moment of Keuregglect left their K-cup in there on the last day of school and there it sat, mouldering, all summer. That was really Keurigglectful.

FIPOP (FY-pop)(n): Trench humor workplace initialism for "Food In Place Of Pay" used when low-level employees are provided free food while being expected to put in unpaid extra work hours. Pizza is the most common FIPOP treat, followed by bagels, donuts, and deli sandwiches. (Also FILOP FY-lop for "Food In Lieu Of Pay" among workers well-schooled enough to know that "in lieu of" means "instead of")
Upon hearing that hourly employees will be expected to stay late, unpaid, until both trucks are unloaded but Manager Eric bought some pizza, Worker Drone Lisa thought, (sarcastic) "oh great, FIPOP pizza --I'd rather have the pay."

Mike arrived at the store and co-worker Becky confided, "We've got to shovel the snow off the parking lot, but they at least put some FIPOP donuts and cocoa in the break room"

BeerIceBaitGroc (beer-iys-BAYt-grock)(n): A phrase printed --occasionally hand-painted-- on placards or signage at rural American community markets meaning "we sell beer, ice, bait, and groceries." Portions of the phrase may be split up among several lines of text, for instance, "BeerIce" on the first line (with or wihout spaces) and "BaitGroc" on the second. If being spoken in sarcasm, the "groc" must be pronounced as spelled: "GROCK" (like "crock") and never "GROSS" (as might be implied from it being a shortened form of "groceries"). Subdivisions of the phrase may serve as shorthand for the whole, i.e. BeerIce may be used alone, as may BaitGroc.
"Heya Honey, I'm gonna' go down to the campground store for BeerIceBaitGroc --maybe get some bread and Bud Light."
