2 jiggers of frustration, garnish with a soupçon of rage

My small division was acquired by a big corporation that is systematically ruining everything good about it. I would like to have a signature cocktail to drink on evenings when something particularly egregious has happened. Suggestions?

As above, I've worked for several years in a senior role at a small division of a business with a good culture and interesting, meaningful work. It never made much money though, and ended up being acquired by an enormous megacorp. While I don't ascribe malice to anyone, the megacorp's very different corporate culture, inability to understand our product, and some difficulty finding equivalents in the corporate org chart for some square-peg roles means that morale is in the toilet. I am (like everyone else) looking for a new job but for Reasons it will probably not happen for 6 months to a year, thus the anonymous post.

I came home tonight after corporate had announced another ham-fisted and unnecessary change that will undoubtedly require me to spend most of Monday listening to people vent and putting out fires, and I told my spouse that I needed a drink. Then I thought, maybe this whole debacle needs a signature cocktail? I could have one once or twice a month when they do something egregious, and I would at least be able to amuse myself by putting together a fancy drink and and toasting to the decline of their stock price.

So. I need recipes for delicious cocktails, but even more so, I need a great name. I'm generally not into super-sweet cocktails but some citrus is good.
