Zombie Army

In some offices that have to close down an account when a customer dies, the Zombie Army is the pile of paperwork that is waiting to be dealt with.

The reason for this is that the actual person is dead, but their account is still live until the necessary processing has been completed, meaning that they're dead, yet undead, hence a Zombie.

Since in my office, there are always large volumes of outstanding customer deaths to process, the vast numbers would enable them to be an army, should they decide to rise up!

Zombie Request

A work request sent to help desks or administrative assistants that should be very quick and simple to complete, but comes back over and over again due to the requestor's poor attention to detail or indecisive work groups or committees unable to agree on a final version of the request.

A zombie request can also relate to non-business requests, such as requests from a honey-do list or a family member.
I thought this spreadsheet was finally complete after the 12th time it came back for revisions, but the Tasks committee now can't decide what order to put the columns in! This zombie request just won't die!

zombie bank

a zombie bank is a bank that is insolvent, bankrupt, that has no money or future, yet still operates because it hides its bad assets, or toxic assets, from the populace via accounting mischief. a bank that is a corporation that allegedly cannot die because a corporation has a lifetime of infinity. a bank that is of the living dead, and the employees and investors of said failed corporation decide to make money by buying politicians and also through false media campaigns to make everyone believe that they are actually alive and thriving, when they should be buried, rather than being allowed to continue to walk the earth and turn the rest of humanity into zombies, as well
zombie bank - all the top banks of the world. all of them.
