1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,560
Speaker 1: It's too early early truly for what it's too early

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: for this. Well, yeah, I think it's too early for

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:08,560
Speaker 1: this any time of the day.

4
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 2: Really, moving forward, after we circle back, I'd like to

5
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,279
Speaker 2: leverage some cross functional synergies and yeah, see, now I

6
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:18,800
Speaker 2: don't even know what I'm talking about.

7
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:22,080
Speaker 3: It's a jargon work jargon.

8
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 2: I've often thought that you're trying to bambooz or bamboozle

9
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 2: me with your words and you don't actually know what

10
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 2: you're talking about, and it turns out it's probably true.

11
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well I've sat in, actually i've sat in a

12
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: lot more meetings where this kind of jargon has been

13
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: used compared to you.

14
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,919
Speaker 3: Probably yes, oh no, definitely, yeah, And.

15
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: Yeah it's confusing, it will it's just it's designed to bamboozle.

16
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: Yes, it is a bamboosler. And Cornell University research has

17
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 2: decided decrete so those that those who circle back and

18
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 2: synergize also tend to be crap at their jobs.

19
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 3: So it's right. It is a diversion. It's what they

20
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 3: it's a diversion tactic.

21
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: It is. It's what they call the corporate bullshit Receptivity Scale.

22
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: That's what they call it. Yes, that's awesome. I love that,

23
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: don't you. Oh?

24
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 3: There it is.

25
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: Yes, here's a good one. Actualize a renewed level of

26
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: cradle to grave credentially. What does that mean?

27
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 3: I don't know.

28
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 1: That's it. That's an actual term. But I've always I

29
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: always thought, you know, those people in a meeting when

30
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: they say circle back, I always refer to them as

31
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 1: a circle jerk.

32
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, is that the right framing of that.

33
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 2: We did work with someone who was a big fan

34
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 2: of moving forward.

35
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: Was he a circle jerk?

36
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 3: No?

37
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: She she?

38
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 2: She liked to move forward a lot, and I used

39
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: to think, well, that's would we be moving in any

40
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 2: other direction?

41
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 3: Well, moving forward? We're not moving side?

42
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: Well no, maybe sorry. Can if you're putting something on ice,

43
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: you might push it sideways and we'll we'll circle back

44
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: and revisit it at a later date, at a more

45
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: convenient junction for all involved.

46
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 2: The researchers said that people with higher receptivity to corporate

47
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,399
Speaker 2: jargon are more likely to view their bosses as charismatic

48
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 2: leaders and feel inspired by corporate messaging. They're also more

49
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 2: likely to use the same language themselves, helping to keep

50
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 2: the buzzword cycle alive and basically, no one knows what

51
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 2: anyone's talking about.

52
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 3: We're is really impressed by the jargon.

53
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: It's like you were saying, you know, people use it.

54
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: It's it's almost like a crutch. The rest of us

55
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: go um and then use the power of the pause.

56
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: Whereas these people feel like they have to continually.

57
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 3: Be filling out words.

58
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,119
Speaker 1: You have to fill it up with words. It makes

59
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:52,119
Speaker 1: them seem so much better.

60
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 2: They've got to propose some synergizing, scalable paradigm paradigm, paradigm.

61
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 3: Paradigm. I'm usually pretty good with the words. You are

62
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 3: so yeah, but that's where you lose me. Definitely.

63
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 1: The only one I did like a graph.

64
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: I've never been a graph person. No, no, a pie chart, no.

65
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 1: No, no, that they're not called graphs pie It would

66
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 1: be it would be a case of let's bring up

67
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 1: the Manhattans. Let's bring up the Manhattans.

68
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 3: Because you have all these Manhattans.

69
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 1: Are is that just well? Because it looks like all

70
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: the graphs going up and down does look like a skyline.

71
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: There are a biggest cities. Could have said let's bring

72
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: up the Shanghais or the South Paolo's or something like that.

73
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: But No, it was always the man.

74
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 2: The only thing that ever saved me in those meetings

75
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 2: with the Manhattans was I was sitting far enough at

76
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 2: the back of the room that I couldn't make it

77
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 2: out on the on the overhead projector that.

78
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: Happens to you know, the only one that I did.

79
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: I used to love it. I was there for the sandwiches,

80
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: when's the miss Maud's arriving. I always used to love it.

81
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: When and we did, we used to finishing, we just go,

82
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: you know, if we just thought, well that's enough, let's

83
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: go where you just go? All right, Well, let's just

84
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: run it up the flag pole and see if anyone

85
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: salutes that piece of jargon. I like, taken that with me.

86
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 3: We're just talking about workplace jar.

87
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: There was one Susie producer just sent through a few

88
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 1: more of those annoying words that are used in meetings.

89
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: The one I have hated for years. Let's touch base. Yeah,

90
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: I hate that.

91
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, that takes me back to all have my people

92
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 2: get in touch with your people and at the end

93
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 2: of the day. That's an old one, but a popular

94
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 2: one I've heard a lot lately is pivot. They used

95
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 2: to master chef a lot when they burnt their meal,

96
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 2: they had to pivot to something else where.

97
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 1: You see, now we're living in an ever changing world,

98
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: so we have to pivot all the time.

99
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 2: But has the absolute current to the moment buzzwords that

100
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 2: are starting to come.

101
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 3: Through work slopes.

102
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 2: Content Jenner raided cheaply by AI Coffee badging is showing

103
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 2: up to the office just long enough to be seen

104
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 2: them leaving.

105
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 1: Is that us? Do we coffee badge? I think we

106
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: might coffee.

107
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 3: We don't coffee badge. We're here for the full amount

108
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 3: of time we are required.

109
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,799
Speaker 1: We are, but not for other meetings.

110
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 2: Hush tripping, working remotely from a vacation spot without telling manager.

111
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 1: Oh we've all known.

112
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, but those same people that do that, they're the

113
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 2: ones that take a photo of their feet but you

114
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 2: know around the pool, you know, the holiday snap of

115
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 2: your feet. Yeah, yes, just in front of the point

116
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 2: them or maybe they're AI feet because your feet horrible

117
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 2: and you want some nicely manicured feet.

118
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 3: I don't know who. You can never tell what's real

119
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 3: and what's not.

120
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: No, that's right, because you can use the screens on

00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're phoning, if it's all pixelated behind you,
