I like to raw dog slide decks for my team. Just plain text boxes, I don’t bother aligning anything. Send it to junior with a note “just raw dogged this deck, please make client-ready”.

I'll take this over my current manager who mocks up slides for me in either MS Paint or Excel

I raw dog all my client meetings. No clue if it's internal or external, no clue what's the topic, never prepare any slides or have docs ready, spend most of it on my phone and only emerge when I hear my name to get them to repeat the question.

Do you actually use the term raw dog? Gen Z here. I get what it means in your context but still feels a little inappropriate haha

It is inappropriate in a work setting but popular as a joke on social media

The etymology guy on tiktok just did a whole thing about the way people are using this

Tbf, I’m not either, I watch whatever tiktoks make it to instagram like an old

But the gist is that there are 3 stages to dysphemisms of decreasing intent to be provocative. Stage 1 is words like edging as a synonym for teasing, stage 2 is phrases like sucking up, stage 3 is scumbag (euphemism entirely lost)

Right now, it seems like rawdogging is somewhere near stage 2

I am extremely good on excel. Sometimes, if I know I have limited time for a file and need to cluster items, I simply use filter, select visible cels, CTRL+enter and fill the cells with the values, skipping formulas and other cr4p. Obvs it becomes impossible to update but it generally saves a bit of time

Can you actually use this at work 👀

I raw dog hotdogs

What a coinkydink - I 🦴🌭🌭🌭 too!

I raw dog my last flight across the pond. No music or movies. Only watched the flight tracker.

This is the context I have heard this used in - mad respect to those who pull off a TransAtlantic flight in this way - I’d go mad
