Call center slang. This word encompasses the statistics that are taken on call center agents to determine their worth. Usually includes average handle time (AHT), wrap, hold time and a few other basic metrics as well as a few 'spin' metrics added by the client to give the client a feeling of control.

A modifier meaning "even more than"
Most commonly used with buttload, assload, or shitload.
The modifier 'metric' has been co-opted from the term 'metric ton,' which is 205 pounds more than a 'ton.'
So, an 'assload' is a lot, but a 'metric assload' is even more.
