Office Amnesia

Call centers and contact centers seem to take great delight in moving their people around before they have a chance to get comfortable in one place thus moving their agents to a new desk location on an ad hoc basis. Office amnesia is simply a temporary state of forgetfullness where you can't remember where you are sitting and end up turning back to go a different route. Its duration commonly lasts only a couple of seconds but very irritating. This usually follows a visit to the bathroom, vending machine, printer or photocopier.
Me: You look lost
Sam: I can't remember where i'm sitting now i've moved desks
Me: That's Office Amnesia - its only temporary... until you move desks again.

Corporate amnesia

When a corporate directive is given, resources allocated and countless hours spent on an initiative, only to be questioned later (by the executive who actually gave the directive) why this directive is being executed and demanding to know who gave the directive.
Executive: I demand to know why we spent $958,000 on studying the t-sprocket usefulness when clearly we’re getting out of the t-sprocket business.
