From the Huffington Post Why Workplace Jargon Is A Big Problem http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/25/work-words_n_5159868.html?utm_hp_ref=business&ir=Business When we replace a specific task with a vague expression, we grant the task more magnitude than it deserves. If we don't describe an activity plainly, it seems less like an easily achievable goal and more like a cloudy state of existence that fills unknowable amounts of time. A fog of fast and empty language has seeped into the workplace. I say it's time we air it out, making room for simple, concrete words, and, therefore, more deliberate actions. By striking the following 26 words from your speech, I think you'll find that you're not quite as overwhelmed as you thought you were.

Who cares about this? It is all going to be irrelevant in in about a month. The CRT ban will be gone in January and this investigation will be coming to end. Like it or not CRT is here to stay and will only get bigger. Why not ride the wave and see you how can take advantage of the situation.

Oh, CRT will be mandatory for all next year. You will have to go along with it or be fired. The next steps are for you to be deprived of other things like social media, credit scores and so on. If you are seen to be threat you will not be allowed to use the internet, perhaps it would be wise to confiscate cars, houses and properties of those who do not agree. Think this a a joke, well did you hear about what happened in Milwaukee on Wed? Of course you did not but groups of people are going around demanding you go along with this or they break your windows and destroy your property. None of these people will ever be prosecuted because the DA will no allow this. In other words the rule of law has broken down.
This stuff is not going away but if you play your cards right you can benefit. Start putting certain woke things on your sig file, your door, the communal bulletin board. Push against your manager if they are not doing the same, push for a promotion because of your politics, harass co-workers who may have said or posted the wrong thing. If you are ahead of the curve on this it could pay off big time. Embrace in the inevitable and profit from it. You have to out woke the woke to survive this. You have to accuse others of being a witch before they accuse you, because the first movers do not get burned at the stake.
