Definitions for the corporate rookie - I

Exposure : A powerful and easy way of extracting work from the innocent. It just means you have to work hard now so that you can get used to it and work hard later.
Challenge : Euphemism for shit work that no one else is willing to do.
Adversity : Synonym of shit - coined because it rhymes with many more words than shit and hence lends itself to poetry.
Learning : If your income is too small to justify the quantum of your work and you also believe you are higher on Maslow's than you actually are, this will do the trick.
Proactiveness : A trait that is used to fast-track the stupid ahead of the innocents.
Team player : A trait used to fast-track the vending-machine flirts ahead of the working innocents.
High quality work : Low quality work
Talent : Human beings
Genius : Human beings who turn up for work
