Itsk: /I-tisk/ When Susan's screen went black she dreaded having to call the crabby ITsk guy but she was stymied. The all-knowing geek strolled into the office with his short sleeved shirt, coffee cup and smarmy attitude, looked at the wall where someone had accdentally kicked out the plug. He stood there with the plug in his hand, tsking, then made a huge show of plugging it in. "Please check the plug before you call next time," he snarled, and wafted out of the office. Etymology: IT: pronounced I - T is the acronym for Informational Technologist + Tsk: sucking sound used to express disappointment or sympathy. Created by: mrskellyscl.

Progrimist: /pro-grim-ist/ Victor the Progrimist was scheduled to do his rounds on the floor at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesdays. The employees all held a meeting to discuss what problems they had beforehand so they would be prepared for his sarcastic and abusive ways and attitude.

Every once in a while they would concoct a fake IT problem just to see him react if there was not many issues to discuss. Etymology: Program + grim +ist Created by: arrrteest.

Progcastigator: /prog-cass-ti-gay-tor/ Many software developers are progcastigators who put off reworking their programs and instead berate users. Etymology: programmer + castigate (reprimand, berate) + procrastinator Created by: Jabberwocky.
