    Any mention of “family” and I’m out. You aren’t my fucking family. I barely tolerate any of you, and I only go that far because I am forced to participate in this bullshit just so I can feed and shelter myself. Just give me my project, shut your dick sheath, and let me grind my life away in silence.

    On a totally unrelated note, “team player”.

    Any talk of “we” from the boss really means “you”. It’s exceptionally maddening when the boss is already a POS who has an A+ for delegation but F- for teamwork and care factor.

    “pAiN pOiNtS”

    these are not knots in muscles they are severe institutional shortcomings and failings that are draining us all, making us want to jump ship, hazardous, and in some cases even making the company lose profit but you fuckheads just want to write down pAiN pOiNtS and jerk yourselves and the shareholders off instead of actually doing ANYTHING MEANINGFUL

    Yesterday I aligned with Harold from the CD team on how to pull the data off their SI table, and so today I’m going to work on validating that data. I’ll probably be done by tomorrow

    I still hate “leverage” used as a synonym for “use.” “We leverage technologies” yeah sure, when was the last time you had your asshole leveraged?

      Typical double click request is as follows:

      Manager: Leadership wants a “double click” on the numbers on slide 8.
      Doer: What do they want to see.
      M: Well they wanted to see more about the numbers on slide 8 they thought it was interesting.
      D: What number? Interesting how?
      M: They want a double click? Does that work? How long will that take?
      D: ummm a week?

        It just sounds forced to me.

        It’s never said by people who created this slang as kids growing up with computers, it’s like managers who just invented it in their 40somethings.

        Like they’re trying to be cool, but it’s just not cool
