“Keep it high level on how we will create synergy between these siloed departments.”

Any time someone tells me to keep something “high level” I take that as them not being interested in any actual solution. If it just took bullet points to fix, we wouldn’t be here talking about it.

Action items and deliverables, I don't have a problem with. It's a more professional way of saying "Add this to your list of shite I need done by Wednesday"

Are you thinking outside the box? Maybe some paradigm shifts?

Currently in an MBR meeting and came running to this thread to post this. In the past hour I have heard all three of these statements. You can’t put the cat back in the bag. You can’t put the genie back in the bottle and the last is the best. You can’t unring the bell.

I've come to the conclusion that about 95% of humans are dumb as shite. Corporate people with no imagination just spew these words because they think they sound "smart" and "important.
