“I cleared bandwidth to lead a higher impact project”
No, don’t say that! Say “I hurkledurked the dooper bobble.” It means exactly the same thing (nothing,) but using the business jargon of the 2030s so you stay ahead of the trend.
They have a point though. They are telling you to phrase things in a way that makes you look better.
How does speaking like a braindead MBA make you look better?
Everyone likes to shit on MBA language, but it’s simply the language of a subculture.
I know exactly what freeing up bandwidth to work on a higher priority project means. It’s not nonsense. Sure, they could say they “sent useless work to the intern so they could do something more important”. But that’s not the language the culture uses.
What’s next, are we going to shit on ebonics too? How about shitting on tech speak? It’s not any less incomprehensible to those outside the bubble.
Anyway, that’s not to you specifically, just this whole thread reeks of a superiority complex.
