Noice!
Iâll be honest some of those things fly around my office, no surprises there.
But Iâm sure thereâs people in my office looking blankly at me when I mention stuff like âWSPHUâ in reference to a competitors top rep, â****â as a prefix when you mention Carlton. I have had someone mention â(insert person who is rubbish) and a third rounderâ which was worth a laugh.
people who say literally, literally all the time.
I once saw a director use a hashtag in an email. AN EMAIL. #uphereforthinkingmate
Oh my god, yes.
Hashtags in emails blow my mind.
#go (personâs name)
#thatswhaticallwinning
#agile
âAre you a #ThoughtLeader?â
Occasional #ThoughtLeader
Occasional #OperationalRiskChampion
Using âliterallyâ for emphasis is literally the worst.
Also âdesign thinkingâ is the worst
one of my best mates is a shocker for it, i donât have the heart to tell him that he is completely butchering the use of that word.
fixed
fixed.

I wrote a âDigital Bullshit Buzzword Bingoâ card once when the Sales guys were sat near me.
Iâll close the loop on this and see if I can surface prior comms before PM tomorrow. If upon initial review you have some suggest amends that meet the brand synergistic and goals please add them; remember to make changes to a local copy and Repo it. The Cloud is the Single Source of Truth here.

I was negotiating on the phone the other day and the person i was speaking to said he couldnât answer just now he needed to speak with "key stakeholders "
I asked if he meant his boss.
âAhâŚyeahâ

I have been at a conference the past 2 days and I would like to nominate a clubhouse leader.
One of the presenters used the term âfastidious prognosticationâ.
I canât even begin to understand how someone would think that is ok.
Iâve been to an imagine pagen, also known as a meeting.
Today we got notified of an âorganisational realignmentâ. Please note, itâs clearly NOT a restructure, cause that is a scary sounding word. Itâs a realignment. Definitely different.
I should add also that apart from bullsh1t lingo like this, i work in government, so my life is basically a Utopia episode
Oh mate. âPark thatâ is the worst. A management word for saying âitâs all too hard, I canât make a â â â â â â â decision here, anyone got a problem with that â â â â ?â
I had back to back to back to back meetings from 10-5 today.
My highlight: âSynergistic integration within the offeringâ
Die.
