Some of the Jargon have become so hackneyed with time but still nobody refrains from using them. It is believed that more jargons one will use, more knowledgeable he is.
Let me summarize some of the them i have encountered in my last 1 year in IT industry.

This is again taken from the sports and used when we want to say that I want to meet you. let's touch base is a technical term to say let's meet.
When somebody is not sure about some topic and want to discuss it one to one instead of in the meeting, he uses this term. And also in some scenarios when somebody is asking the questions not aligned with the agenda of the meeting or distractions, the host uses this terms to indicate that we will discuss it one to one after the meeting.
This is used to motivate as well as demotivate the employee. This is commonly said during appraisal period when your manager is asking you to push the envelope means he is asking you to think outside the box and to move beyond your limits of what has usually been accepted as a standard and come up with new ideas and initiatives.
Asap is abbreviated for as soon as possible. It means the same what is conveyed by as early as possible or at your earliest.
It sounds very obvious. It simply means to complete something.
