calling corporate

Usually said by a “Karen” who wants to appear right and authoritative in a situation. It is usually stated by someone who doesn’t work for the company that is being threatened.
Customer: l don’t have to wear a mask; I have a doctor’s excuse.

Clerk: I’m sorry, but I can’t serve you if you don’t have on a mask. It’s company policy.

Customer: Well, I’m calling corporate!

Mike: Hey Ken. What are you doing?
Ken: I’m just weeding my garden.

Mike: You know that’s against our HOA rules.

Ken: No, it isn’t…I’m just pulling out the weeds.

Mike: Well, I’m calling corporate.

Did you hear that crazy neighbor say that she was calling corporate because I was turning on my porch light before it got dark?

Man, if you throw that cigarette butt in the street, someone may call corporate.

cannibal corpse

Cannibal corpse: A BRUTAL death metal band that origined in 1989 their first cd was eaten back to life. The band was the first in the death metal scene to have the sickest incomprehensible and over the top lyrics and art work- vincent locke. Their earlier music had the vocalist chris barnes who is actually better than george fisher. Just to point out the band in its early days was only for certain individuals to listen to. but now it is mainly associated with wanabees and 'goths'- ie... 13 year old children who think they are 'sick and twisted' when they are mere normal kids who gets their mommys to order a gore-obsessed long sleeve cannibal corpse t shirt off ebay to look 'abnormal' this is whats wrong with the band now, it has been promoted to much, so it is too popular. i used to be a cannibal corpse fan i bought chris barnes 2 albums (i still sometimes listen to) but that guy actually had some brutal talent george fisher is a fake extrovert. i'm not saying they are totally crap now but they ahve changed a lot- early cannibal corpse saounded like mortician- an even better band.
8 year old: mummy i just looked up a band called cannibal corpse on google, they are like foo fighters please by me a t shirt off ebay.

mum: off course dear

corporate freeloader

A corporate freeloader. Has an I.T degree but has never written a line of code in his entire life. He says he wants to learn but in reality is not interested. He attended a coarse in C# so that he can boast about it and moan how expensive it was. Doesn't know the difference between a website and a webservice and thinks microsoft sharepoint is something you install on a PC like a normal application.

When trying to explain a concept to him he stares at you and repeats "exactly.. exactly" many times. This is a giveaway meaning he understood nothing.

Strategically, he likes to be someone else's shadow, appearing to be a friend, he is really leeching on his resources and hard work. He continously tries to get recognition of other's peoples work and to appear as the expert, by repeating statements memorized from other's people's conversations. He acts more like a parrot than as a human. It seems his mental resources are utilised to monitor and leech others, not to live life like other people.

When cornered and faced with his limitations and freeloading tactics, he generally retreats, and waits for the next opportunity to repeat the cycle. When stressed he may burst in a frenzy of ridicule and intollerance towards others, but never admits his faults.

Beware of these people. They can make your life difficult to live in peace. if you need more info how to spot them, here is a good article i found:

Example of I.T corporate freeloader

You are assigned on a task by your manager. jason asks the manager to come with you to gain experience and 'learn' something new.

When you are on the task, he stays in a corner supposedly writing notes and does not provide input.

when asked by the manager about the task outcome, he jumps in the middle and speaks as he did all the work. Unkowing managers will get the impression he did all the work, but one that knows better ignores him outright. when this happens he gets pissed and offends him behind his back.

When you confront him that he really did not provide input and was only there to learn he offends you as well. jason then retreats and acts for his next chance, playing the administrative manager's role in the mean time.
