Ketsbaia Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 While we're at it, I invented the term 'transfer round-up'. Until then there was no common way to describe a selection of transactions and whatnot. I wouldn't say it was particularly accurate though, they're not being rounded up like a shepherd would do.

Pixelphish Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 I coined the term 'managerial merry-go-round'. I used it on a few different forums and whatnot before it was in common use and then I presume it got picked up. To be honest though, it's not even a particularly accurate metaphor. Is this satire?

Vivian Darkbloom Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Why is it so hard to believe I coined the term 'managerial merry-go-round'? If I was going to lie about having invented something, I'd say heart bypass operations or the sharpshooter. I feel like Richard Lewis when nobody would believe he invented the phrase "_____ from hell". Sod the lot of you! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vivian Darkbloom Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Greg, I can't give you specifics. I've had a lot of accounts on a lot of platforms, going right back to that time when everyone got the internet.
