Germployee<\/strong>: \/jurm ploy ee<\/em>\/ Peter was well on his way to becoming Germployee of the Month. He regularly came in to work, when he should have stayed in his sick bed. The more contagious he was, the more hours he would expose his co-workers to his nasty virulent bacterium. If he just once stayed home when he felt this way, office absenteeism would plummet. His new nickname was Peter Pandemic. Etymology:<\/em> Germ (a minute life form (especially a disease-causing bacterium) & Employee (a worker who is hired to perform a job) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n

Staphstaff<\/strong>: \/stafstaf<\/em>\/ Betty works in an office where they are very careful to categorize workers into specific workgroups. Nobody is supposed to or allowed do work that isn’t in their job description. Betty has her own categories for people who insist on coming to work despite being ill. The biggest group is the flucrew. The bunch she works hardest to avoid is the staphstaff. Etymology:<\/em> staph (a bacterium of a genus that includes many pathogenic kinds that cause pus formation, esp. in the skin and mucous membranes) + staff (all the people employed by a particular organization) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n

Jobsicksess<\/strong>: \/job-sick-sess<\/em>\/ John is a workaholic determined to become CEO before he’s forty. He comes to work no matter his illness. This lends to his rising star success, but to his co-workers, John’s jobsicksess means they’ll probably catch the swine flu, or other disease from him.<\/p>\n

Etymology:<\/em> job + sick + obsess; j + obsess = jobsess + sick = jobsicksess<\/p>\n

Contagent<\/strong>: \/[kuhn-tey-juhnt]<\/em>\/ In the real estate business, there was only one man that made every client sick. Literally. Whether, rain or shine, herpes or measles, swine flu or walking pneumonia, Dan could always be relied on to show houses or man the phones as the hardest working contagent in the office. Etymology:<\/em> A mash-up of ‘contagion’, the communication of disease by direct or indirect contact and ‘agent’, a person or business authorized to act on another person or business’s behalf, a substance that causes a reaction, or any microorganism capable of causing disease.
