Learning the Lingo

Alongside all the acronyms and jargon, I've had to learn all sorts of kiwi phrases which have come up in the office. Here's a sample of the slang:

• Box of fluffy ducks - this means that everything is good - not full of sh*t and feathers
  
• Bigger than Ben Hur - a description of an issue or challenge which is on the large and intimidating side
• Turn to custard - now the issue which was bigger than Ben Hur has blown up as predicted
• She'll be right - a dose of optimism
  
• Chocolate fish - this is the opposite of custard - a prize for doing a good job
• Good on ya mate! - a phrase to accompany the chocolate fish
