I've just seen "sunset" used as a verb. You can't do that to me before I've had my coffee. #English #CorpSpeak #language #daft

@ben it doesn't help when they use meaningless #corpspeak to justify layoffs: "PayPal CEO Dan Schulman pinned the blame for his company's decision to lay off 2,000 employees on the 'challenging macro-economic environment.'"

Anyone have "What are the aligned success criteria?" on their #CorpSpeak bingo board? :flan_eyeroll:​

So, they were announcing promotions at work (director of blahblahblah is now vice president of blahblahblah, etc.), and someone in upper management called one of those just promoted a "Swiss army knife of awesome." First, "awesome" is not a noun. Second, no...don't do that. #swissarmyknife #corpspeak
