New office terminology

Here is my new term for the day; execuborg mark and sweep. This refers to when the executives sweep the halls after hours looking for people who fail to stay late. Those people are marked... and eventually swept. The mark and sweep portion refers to the software design of the same name for garbage collection.

Technically, I think the ones who are there are marked and the others are garbage collected. Just to keep the analogy intact. But it's still the best term I've heard coined in... well... ever.
