sense of humour failure

A phrase used by a manager as an awkward semi-apology after they lose their temper at their employees. This is the closest to an apology you're likely to get.

Prevalent in the UK tech and consulting sector.
(after boss has stopped shouting obscenities at their staff)

Failure

The name given to a group of city workers. (Similar to a group of wildcats; called a destruction, but not to be confused with a group of wildebeests; called a confusion )
Look at that failure, all dressed in orange coveralls and leaning on their shovels.

That's the third failure we've passed today; blocking traffic and all of them standing around looking in a hole.
