“Learnings”
Yes its an old word and was repopularized by Borat of all things.
Ugh. Just say lessons or something. Leanings just sounds … wrong.

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".
I can’t read this shit on the weekend you guys are killing me :p
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.
We're going to hyperconverge our core past the edge node and clear out to the cloud!
Lessons learned
"going forward."
Yeah, "from now on" worked fine there Phill.
"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
Wow, lots of “double clicks”, which is fairly new to the usual list.
Because it's new and awful. Also implies that these massive new work is just a simple tasks. 0/10
Collaborator instead of employee. That's a usage that has spread through every company in French. It's infuriating how it.she just plain lying.
Place I worked at some time ago made a big speech and unveiled the following company motto to a lot of confused faces: "Engagement makes awareness sustainable."
Nice. I'll drive alignment on this value with my directs. I'll status you tomorrow.
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
"It is what it is".
Used by spineless weasels when it something that they could have avoided, or can still be solved but they are too scared or stupid to say anything.
