Here are top statements from manger.
- Out of box ( Your idea is crappy, try again)
- Leverage (Subtle way of asking to take advantage of something. God knows what)
- WFH (Just being online sleeping at home doing nothing but not taking leave from work too, in short WFH)
- Revert back (It means bull crap in proper English. But I want a response to my query)
- ASAP (My managers are pissed off, do your work quickly or get fired)
- Please do the needful (I have no idea what/how/when to do, but you do it anyway on ASAP bases)
- Touch base (Warning: This is not an invitation to touch your boss’s base)
- Proactive (DO extra work you’re not paid for)
- I’m low on resources (Humanity is dead. We’re just resources. Sigh!)
- Bring to the table (Ohhh puleesse !!! don’t sit idle & sleep during my boring meeting. You can join me with your OOB ideas too)
- Keep me in the loop (Include me in every unnecessary email chain ever.)
- Network with people (You should waste your more time on doing unproductive work, that’s what you meant?)
- Core competencies (I just want to prove that you’re good at nothing. Hence, this spine breaking jargon that means nothing.)
- Give 110% (Subtle way of asking you to slog)
- Win-win (It’s a trap. Run)
- Ramp up (Develop extra skill that’s not your interest at all)
- What’s the ballpark number (I know you’ve no idea about the estimation, just throw a random number on me)
- Let’s take this offline (You’re never going to talk about this again)
- I don’t have the bandwidth (Not really, it means your manager can’t work. Why? Coz. Managers are not supposed to work)
- SWOT analysis (I’ve no idea what’s happening, so let me do my numbo-jumbo)
- Better visibility (It means you should show up in the office more often. Not sleep during the meetings and get your work done)
- My 2 cents (here is my advice that’s not even worth 2 cents. Take it anyways because I’m your boss.)
- Open door policy (Just because the door to my cabin is open, doesn’t mean I want to listen to your BS. But I want to get promoted to Sr. Manager, so I’ll rub this jargon in your face anyway.)
- Value-add (You’re not adding any value to the company. Time to look for a new job.)
- OOO (Dear manger, I will pray to god that you may forever be out of office)
