      How else are you going to become an executive and have all the slaves employees do whatever you want?

      Everyone likes to shit on MBA language, but it’s simply the language of a subculture.

      I know exactly what freeing up bandwidth to work on a higher priority project means. It’s not nonsense. Sure, they could say they “sent useless work to the intern so they could do something more important”. But that’s not the language the culture uses.

      What’s next, are we going to shit on ebonics too? How about shitting on tech speak? It’s not any less incomprehensible to those outside the bubble.

      Anyway, that’s not to you specifically, just this whole thread reeks of a superiority complex.

        You’re comparing:

        • A group of English dialects spoken by an ethnic group
        • A field that has technical terms with precise meaning
        • A manufactured group of buzzwords largely appropriated from real technical terms meant to obscure meaning to outsiders and sometimes even hide criminal activity

        These are not the same. And none of those are a subculture.

      Because generally you’re justifying your promotion to an MBA anymore. The days of being promoted purely on merit because your boss understands the work you do are LONG gone.
