N. An organization of ultra rich”adult” children, that behave as children, who hire top notch legal, accounting, investment advisors to ensure their heirs do not blow all their pappy’s wealth on coke (some leakage assumed and quietly approved). These heirs believe they work for a living but do not even know what that really is. And they believe they are intelligent, which is a mixed bag at best and even when true wildly exaggerated. The advisors are as advertised, but must comply with one unsaid rule “do not judge or criticize any family member no matter how absurd the behavior or comment.” The pay is generally worth this indignity.
Also, accompanying any proper FO will be a shameless group of investment companies that attempt to suck at the teat of the FO. Family office conferences are famous for the hilarity of investment advisors throwing themselves at barely coherent family members, like drunk fluzies at a rock concert, for a chance to nibble at a bread crumb that said coke head might remit.

Hey, Peter is on stage at The Family Office (FO) Conference in Florida acting like he has any clue what he is talking about. But he did secure co-GP rights on an investment his family doesn’t understand so for the MF win, right.

Before the advent of mobile communication devices (pagers, mobile phones), someone at a public event might be summoned over the public address system to "call your office", indicating that an urgent message was waiting for them. In this context, the phrase is used to imply that someone is unaware of important information - i.e. that their arguments are uninformed and therefore superfluous.

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.

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.
