Has anyone else embraced consulting speak to the point that you can’t ever turn it off? My spouse makes fun of me when I say things like double click, MECE, or operationalize in daily conversation.

I know! I don’t even hear it though. My family actually keeps a list of the crazy buzzwords I say when I work from home and a tally them up.

The crazy part is when I was an intern I cringed at all the consultant speak and vowed never to do it. That didn’t last long…

I like to talk to my dog in business gibberish. She loves it! Who wants to double down? Do you want to double down? You're a good girl who doubles down! Always makes her wag her tail.

While I may use a lot of buzzwords, two I refuse to ever say are “open the kimono” or “sexy” to refer to anything at work. Those are disgusting! 🤢

Speaking of MECE… so used to it now that I can’t tolerate listening to friends or family when they aren’t structured, it takes a LOT of patience on my part 😌
