Copper wire management 

Management style focusing solely on relaying information and instruction from the ownership level to the staff level and vice versa. A Copper wire is simply a conductor which transfers energy from one end to the other, it does not generate a spark on its own. As such appropriately named, this management style does not initiate any process, legitimate or perceived, it takes no responsibility for outcomes by routinely holding the other end of the copper wire responsible when one end has raised any issue.
I just got a crap load of work piled on me by my manager and I complained to him.... but all he said was don't blame me I only relay information from the top.

He's pulling some major copper wire management tactics on you!!!

Searching for copper wire coils 

Used when someone is picking their pants out of their crack without knowing/disregard for others perception
I can’t go out with Jim, he’s always searching for copper wire coils. It’s gross, but admittedly funny that he thinks nobody sees him do it.
An Irish phrase meaning shit, derived from ass
(Not to be confused with the literal description of one's buttocks)
"Did you hear the song Aylek$ dropped?"
"Hardly. Her music is absolute cheeks."

"My boyfriend say LaFlame is cheeks."
"Tell your boyfriend I said it's his mixtape that's cheeks."
