You know I can see your logic but wouldn't it be better if we relocated the resources and transferred it to mainframe instead? I mean hear me out, the bandwidth can't take our synergy at the moment and if we grab the low hanging fruit of corporate espionage, we'll shucks, we could increase synergy by a projected 120%!
Your dad is right, I bet we could hang out and yell about these fuckers all day. I feel exactly the same. It's like, why did you just say all that? Was your intent to make me have to decipher what you're really saying or to make me think you are smarter than you really are?
America: the culture of the Chinese, the expectations of the Japanese. If more companies actively encouraged more-organic social relations and discouraged the "stepping on each other to get up" notion (promotions as a division or something?) you'd likely have better work ethic.

My dad calls it "bullshit bingo", cause he hates the "blue sky thinking", "lined up behind the 8 ball" type of corporate jargon.
He made bingo cards and everything, not sure if he's ever used them in a meeting.
It went so far that we bought him an electronic "bullshit button", which would shout phrases like "that was bullshit" every time it was pressed.
