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.

If my pilot was so dumb as to not want to get a vaccine or a booster they should not be anywhere near a plane. I am glad LANL got rid of the unvaccinated, we need to start doing the same to the rest of the country. There should be real consequences, like you shold be bared from ever working at any kind of DOE lab or ever being allowed to fly again. I bet if we too drivers licenses away from the unvaxed we would reduce car accidents. I am just dumbfounded how such people could have ever graduated high school much less get a college degree. Do we really want these people participating or having a say in society? This is a serious question, you have the right to your own opinion but you do not have the right to activity hurt others.

The 1:02 PM post is close to what you see on Facebook every day by people that are not tongue-in-cheek. I guess what gave it away was that it was not crazy enough. The real stuff has a sort of crazy realism that unnerving.
