The buzzword that is the favorite at my job is "overcommunicate" I [expletive] hate it, , it is [expletive] stupid. Only stupid [expletive] heads need to be over [expletive] communicated with. [expletive] off mother [expletive]. Is that over [expletive] communicated enought for you.

I have this 'meta' manager and it's annoying.

Actually referenced 'Who Moved My Cheese' in a meeting. And to prepare for the project suggested we discussed how we would deal with problems that might arise....but we had no clue what were actually going to be doing.

"the basic blocking and tackling we do when teeing up an opportunity"

C'mon, buddy. You could've worked in a baseball reference too.

"Let's put the ball in play while adjusting the sails"

That's more like it.
