I think you should share some of them here!! I'll even start the thread with one from my marketing days.

I found out early on, if you spoke Bell you could get the techs to do what you wanted.... much like speaking vi to Unix hacks.   And if you make a rally same time as me, I'll share a six pack's worth of Mother Bell horror stories.  (For the uninitiated, Mother Bell and the broadcasters  were usually Not On Speaking Terms back in the regulated days)

Outside Network Interface. Before the feds decided they knew better how to run the telecom in the states we called it a protector...because that was/is where the lightning protection is located. Prior to 1979 we used carbon discs with a .003" air gap between the tip & ring and ground. Beginning in 1979 we used inert gas carbons in all locations, prior to this the gas units were only used in proven high lightning strike locations.

Google didn't cover it. Cool (like Steve McQueen).....as opposed to 'kewl' (like Justin Beiber)!
