I once set up a help desk system with the following levels of urgency for Incidents:

Critical
Urgent
Normal
Trivial

To this day, I don't think anyone noticed.

My bad.

I once submitted a labor breakdown for a cost proposal to finance with labor categories that looked like this:

PM FNG
Software Engineer FNG
Sr. Software Engineer FNG
Electrical Engineer FNG
Technician FNG
Sr. Technician FNG

FNG stands for Fucking New Guy. The finance department didn’t know that, and the labor categories got submitted the way I wrote them. We didn’t win the project, but the KO got a good laugh out of our proposal because he knew what it stood for.
Save a life. Adopt a greyhound.
