Professionally useless

The kind of coworker who is completely useless to any component of their job. They accomplish nothing when they’re there and you’re actually better off without them. This person is worthless to the job that other departments know about them too. He may also fake being sick to get out of work. All they’re good at is taking up oxygen. They are the weakest link

Mike: where is joe?

Sam: he’s out sick again.

Mike: wasn’t he just sick like a week ago?

Sam: yeah he was.

Mike: that guy is professionally useless

This term is used when a person is just obnoxious enough to still be acceptable in a professional environment.

Rick got so much done. He is professionally Obnoxious but remains professionally acceptable. He did get a lot done though.

professionally livid

The state of being so mad while working in an HR controlled professional environment that you word vomit your anger, but without cursing.

My coworker made me so flipping professionally livid that I sent a "per my previous" email. What can we do to ruin their life within the guidelines of the personnel manual?

Professionally Homeless

The ability to fall asleep at any point anywhere at any time and be relatively comfortable.

“John just conked out on my love seat, no blanket or pillow.”

“Yeah he’s professionally homeless. Just give it enough time he could be asleep on safety net made of razor wire.”
