Buzzword-itis


I realized today as I accidentally caught a glimpse of someone's cover letter to their resume that I'm really tired of buzzwords. Their cover letter talked about how well they worked "in the trenches". Then I realized that the current election cycle has made me really, really tired of buzzwords.
I would prefer a straightforward description of what someone promises to do. But I don't really expect it from politicians anymore, because buzzwords allow them to get an emotional reaction from people without getting into specifics that they might later have to live up to.

Come on arbi, shift your paradigm and be willing to think out of the box. It's all good.

I think our objective here is to find closure. This nanomanagement is only going to backfire. Take your electile dysfunction seriously and maybe think about a staycation. All this negativity just harshed my mellow.

You people are amazing!

Makes me so glad I'm not in the workforce listening to that stuff any more. The weeds may be annoying, but they never numb your brain like that. aww
