This is a gamer term. I've never heard it in a business environment. Even as a IT engineer.

    I’ve never heard it in a business environment. Even as a IT engineer.

    My friend manages a team of engineers and TAMs for massive companies that do stuff like make airplanes and manage phone networks and you know the names. They specifically produce a toolsuite and rent out pro-serv nerds to go to mammoth DCs and show people where they fucked up their cabling and double the throughput. Like, SO nerdy.

    'bio break' is used a few times a day.

    1. Its unprofessional.
    2. Its gross. Saying something thats basically "gonna go take a dump" is unnecessary. Personally I don't give two shits, but not everyone is as easygoing as me. Best to keep a professional hat on at work.

    I did use it at work once and a single "Dude TMI" was all it took for me to stop. Online playing an MMO as a group is casual and often used as a trigger for a group break.

    At work I just say "going to step away for a bit" and that's all that's needed.
