corporate samurai

A person in a conflict-oriented profession (ie assassin, negotiator, advertising personnel, etc)who follows a samurai-like code of ethics. This generally means limiting collateral damage (whatever that might be, depending on the profession), treating their job as 'just business (not bringing personal animosity into competition),' and respecting competitors in their profession. Coined as a part of the cyberpunk movement in science fiction, and exemplified by Case in Neuromancer by William Gibson, and Hiroaki Protagonist in Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson.

Hiro was a corporate samurai for CosaNostra Pizza #3569.

corporate media

1) What 90% of americans get their 'news' from

2) A sophisticated system of propaganda that pretends it's not

3) A handful of mega-corporations that protect their rich buddies

Fox News is the corporate media wing of the neo-conservative movement.

Corporate Pawn

A Sacraficial Lamb used to take the blame for a mis-managed project that actually has a long history of problems created by people long since promoted and moved elsewhere before the project is inherited by the pawn and hits a catastrophic unrecoverable demise.

Upon realizing the eminent the demise of a project promote everyone tied to it's history out of the department before hiring the Corporate Pawn to take on the projects responsibilities. Leave no former connections to the prior project team before hiring the pawn. Leave the pawn completly in the dark as much as possible while they try to navigate their sinking ship. Tell the pawn that the ship is in great shape, good luck and you are counting on them. The pawn will tell you otherwise eventually. Prepare documentation to fire the pawn as soon as the pawn starts to realize they have no means of sustainability.

corporate fluffer

A person who excels in a company simply by sucking cock, or being a kiss ass.

Oh, him? He got to the top by being a corporate fluffer. Another one of those, "the employees, have to be qualified, but the managers don't."

Corporate Democrat

So one who has been in politics since the 20th Century and has worked for Corporation such as those on wall street in New York City tends to be mostly lily-white

Andrew Cuomo is a two-term corporate democrat governor

corporate celery

A useless employee; someone who uses up more company resources than they return by way of contribution to the company

Wayne is such a lazy fuckwit, he never brings in any sales, he is just corporate celery!

Corporate cutie

A hot girl dressed in professional attire, assumed to be educated and employed; seen typically during business hours, at work or on their lunch break. Generally 21+ years of age, but not too old to be called "cute" (average 30ish)

I spend my lunch breaks at Panera Bread for the eye candy. Every girl that comes in that place is a corporate cutie.
