Backfield shrinkage

(n) In law or other industries where time is entered by professionals for billing to clients, the process by which the time is "written down," by owners of the firm to reduce the compensation of the professionals entering the time.

Frequently, this phenomenon is accompanied by the owners of the firm "writing up" their own time on the same file to increase their own share of the billings to the client.
I billed 200 hours last month, but the backfield shrinkage will probably cut that in half by the time that it gets billed out.

Backfiring Bull

When you (son) and your mum are having anal sex in her bedroom, your dad walks in. You insist him to fuck you in the ass. When he is fucking you, you cum in your mum's ass and she shits all the cum and shit out onto your face. When your dad is about to climax, he cum's on the shit, which is on your face, and smears it all around your body. This is the "Backfiring Bull".
Mum: Son do you want to fuck me in the ass.
Son: (Casual) ye sure, got nothing better to do.
(Mum and Son having anal sex)
Dad: (Walks in) What the Fuck?
Son: FUCK ME IN THE ASS DAD!
Dad: (Casual) sure, why not.
(When son's about to cum)
Son: Lets do the BACKFIRING BULL!
Mum & Dad: FUCK YE!!!
