Define: "The Cloud"
What HR thinks it means:
Delivery of computing services over the internet.
What it actually means:
"Someone else's computer that we are now paying a 400% premium to use."
Use it in a meeting:
"Moving to the cloud didn't actually solve our architecture problems, it just made them highly available and incredibly expensive."
Tired of hearing this?
Next time someone says "The Cloud" in a meeting, track exactly how much company money they just wasted. Play Buzzword Bingo, generate a waste invoice, and stop the bleeding.
