We have a high school student doing some admin/intern-y stuff for us today, and she just referred to her jump drive as a "jack". None of us in the office had heard that term before- is this a weird name or are we just tragically unhip?
Never heard of it, even from the college-age kids I'm in class with. They usually just have little USB drives and they call them "thumb drives" if they give them any kind of nickname.
Not that we're cool or anything, but none of my coworkers has ever referenced a "jack". Jump Drive, Flash Drive, Thumb Drive, USB stick... etc. Maybe she was referring to her USB "jack" as in port? Still... I think she's the one missing something.
