Speaking in Tongues

Part of my job is processing online banking requests. I don't really move any money myself, but I recieve the requests, and dispatch them to the proper person to handle the request.

As a result I have to constantly update statuses on the requests. Basically simple stuff like "forwarded to _____" and "Approved and processed by _________", etc.

I figured out that I can use the speech recognition software and make up new words for those statuses. Now I can say a made up word and my computer interprets my word and types the corresponding status.

I have to be sure to do this before my Co-Workers get in. if they hear me speaking a bunch of made up gibberish at my computer, they might think I lost it.
