Let’s take a high level view of this to see if there is any value added moving forward.

Where I work every frickstick loves to say value added.

Page 3 and no "lean in".

As in, "that XYZ project is missing dates, you better lean in Fred and make sure the project doesn't turn Red".

Have a co-worker a few years back when he heard "reach out", he'd audibly say "reach around". Didn't care who was in the meeting.

Im going to see if i can get NPC going as a new buzzword. Would be funny to hear management openly refer to their employees as "non player characters" thinking that theyre sounding cool

Just tell them "Good morning cocksuckers this will be really quick" People might actually listen.
