It was a bit of a hard day at the ice cream factory

When you’re asked about how your day was and you had a bad one but the person who is asking had an objectively worse day than you did.

Firefighter: we lost every child to the fire at the orphanage. Anyway, how was your day?
Me, working at a party service: We ran out of balloons and the customer got really angry.

Buggerance Factor

This phrase is derived from the English slang word buggerance meaning something annoying, an untimely interruption or anything else that interferes with the smooth progress of work. It is used a lot in project management where it became necessary to allow additional time for these unforeseen and unforeseeable events. Where it was not possible to allow this time against a particular element of the project, a non-specific increase in time was allowed to cover these eventualities, this became known as the Buggerance Factor.

The Buggerance Factor is there to cover the extra time needed to rectify those things, which never ever go wrong, but invariably do if you fail to allow for them. It is usually added because of a sixth sense on the part of the project manager that something unexpected is going to happen and is the factor that allows for the law of project management that states Parkinson, Murphy and Sod are alive and well and working on your project. See also Malcolm’s Law.

That Heale Malcolm has managed to wangle his way on to the next project!

That fuckwit! We'd better increase the buggerance factor in that case.

The O'Reilly Factor

The principle that an organization won't fire a serial sexual harasser who brings in millions of dollars until his harassment hits its bottom line.

Fox kept the O'Reilly Factor on the air despite knowing that Bill O'Reilly was a sexual harasser. But when word leaked out that he was and the public found out, advertisers pulled their ads. Then the O'Reilly factor kicked in.
