I genuinely hate how MBA-speak has been adopted seemingly everywhere. I truly, truly hate it. I understand and appreciate that we need a concise set of terminology and jargon to have conversations about these things but these words seem specifically chosen to abstract away the human quality of the humans being discussed.

Fake-smart business language is a plague. "Per" (worse: "as per"), "utilize" where "use" is more correct. All sorts of absurd euphemisms for "chat" or "meeting" or "talk". It's gross.
Well let's take this conversation offline and circle back on this topic.
