second office

Where you are when answering cell phone call in the bathroom at work. A distinct 'echo' can be heard by the caller that gives away that you're sitting in a bathroom stall. This term is more appropriate,...and funnier, than telling the caller that you are sitting on the toilet.

"Hi Celeste, how are you?"
"I'm sitting here working in my second office."

Soft Office

Evolution of working from home - working from bed.

After several staggered alarm snoozes, waking 5 minutes before your shift starts, you drag the laptop into the warm sanctuary of cosy goodness for a your wretched day of work.

You'll likely only get up for coffee and comfort breaks and you may well don a shirt over your pjs in case you get a video call from your boss.

The unlucky may fall foul of napping through an entire morning to wake up drenched in sweat, having missed 7 Skype calls from an angry Manager.

Cor blimey, I went one too many on the Sunday wines last night. How fortunate I’m in the soft office tomorrow.

office slurp

term used in financial service centers,where employees are sitting in cubicles and the method of communication is chatting. An office slurp occurs when one is sending a juicy,and kinky joke or gossip (please not confuse with unfunny and uninteresting rumors that old office hags spread) via chat,and the receiver has to laugh,but so that the others (company mushrooms,yes-men or office ogres) around should not notice that. Therefore (s)he is making a slurping sound effect to cover the vicious laughing.

Friend: Hey,Have you heard that Marc has a fake pussy in his backpack??
Other Friend: ssssssssllllllllluuurp (sound effect) That s what I call a real office slurp!

office staff

n. Stout piece of wood used for striking co-workers who won't shut up about latest episode of "The Office" or other TV show.

If you say another word about what a cute couple Jim and Pam make I swear I am going to get an office staff and beat your lips until they stop moving!

The new TV season starts in October so I usually plan an office staff party for November.

office envy

Related to Desk envy. A patient suffering from office envy will when walking into an office of another company feel overwhelmed with a sense of envy. He or she will be found staring or touching the large well- proportioned desks, big round, beautifully curved meeting tables and soft shaggy carpets.
Having seen these large, massive desks, curved tables and soft carpeting he or she will be thinking about them all the time and comparing them to their own smaller, uglier and bad-proportioned office, leading to office envy.

Herb clearly suffers from office envy, every time he walks into a client's meeting room he forgets about the sales and can't keep his hands off the furniture.
