Office for Homeland Security

Government department with the job of making people insecure by getting cops to break into their homes.

A good example of Newspeak.

The far-right bigot in charge of this office, whose name I forget, is the same man who spent years trying to lynch Mumia Abu-Jamal and he's praised the Nazis as well.

Officed

A reference to one being maimed or killed in an office setting.

When one dies in an officecide they are considered officed (much like the term offed in a gang related death). Jane was officed by a coworker last week in a deadly officecide.

circular out of office

Sometimes done without knowledge of the participating parties but is actually a tactic used by two or more office employees trying to cover each others ass while also avoiding workloads while they are both out of the office. Working like a circular reference error, it is when two or more workers set up their out of office message referring another contact person in the event of any urgent or pressing matters ... only to taken when in fact they reach out to the other contact to find out he or she is also out of the office and is referring the orginal sender back to the original request

Boss : Smith, did you get that Mitchel report done yet?
Smith: Well, Jackson was working on it, I'll check in with him and let you know.
Later that day Smith to pal Phil: Damn that Jackson and Murphy, the f'd me again!
Phil: What they do?
Smith: They set up a circular out of office on me, and the boss is looking for that Mitchel report.

Law-Enforcement Officer

What some Policemen call themselves to sound more professional, fancier, or somehow more important.
-Or because they're ashamed to be cops.

Denotes certain Federal-Agents, Fish & Wildlife Officers, Park-Rangers, Border-Patrol, and other such sworn & commissioned professionals who work in important fields of law-enforcement, but who are not necessarily traditional street-cops.

Also used by those Officers who do not want to thought of, or referred to, as Policemen.

Abbreviated as LEO (singular) or LEO's (plural).

"When a cop calls himself a Law-Enforcement Officer, it's like a garbage-man calling himself a Sanitation-Worker, or a clerk calling herself a Sales-Associate."

"Being a Policeman is an honorable-profession. Nothing is more vital to Public-Safety than the humble street-cop; Be proud of who you are, and of what you do."

The Office

A prime example of British comedy at its best. Originated in Britain (obviously) but followed up by America with "The Office - An American Workplace" which, frankly, uses American humour and all our best quotes eh boys ;)

Co-written by Ricky Gervais and Steven Merchant who also appeared at Live 8 this year! - www.rickygervais.com/video2_1.php
