Mind the Gap

A transatlantic phrasebook for Workday programmes. Two languages separated by a common one, the false friends that derail a call, and the HR and payroll terms that quietly bite when a US and UK rollout share a tenant.

The phrasebook

Same words, opposite meaning. The ones that derail a call.

Funny until a pay calendar, a leaver process or a tax year goes in on the wrong assumption. Running Workday across the US and the UK is where these gaps stop being amusing. That is the unfunny version of this page.
