Don't be afraid to learn a new language...business language - that is. Pick up on the real meaning behind business buzzwords to get ahead {or to stay afloat}
The Buzzwords..............The Buzz
I'd like to build on your point....................I disagree, but you're the boss
We're launching another major initiative...Your life, for the next six months = nightmare
We need to think outside of the box........We're desperate
This is mission critical!..........................Your ass is on the line!
Due diligence!......................................I have a MBA!
CC me on everything..............................I don't trust you for a second
We have to change strategy.....................We don't have a damned clue
These are just a few buzzwords to get you started and keep you in the communication loop. So at least, if you don't know exactly what you're suppose to be doing, you'll know what they're saying about it!!!

Aah yes, I am quite familiar with this lingo. And now happily, gainfully (and sanely) self-employed as a result.
Oh Yes,
the beautiful of self-employment.
The splendor of it all:-D
