Managers and bosses love lingo, and with this table, you can impress them with almost no effort:

Think of any three numbers and pick the corresponding word from each of the three columns. So, for example, if you chose 3-4-5, then your phrase would be: 

Systemized Reciprocal Programming (SRP)

 It means absolutely nothing, but it sounds impressive, and managers love that sort of stuff.

 Moral of the story: Impressive lingo, even if they don't know what it means, managers love fancy terms.
