Buzzword Bingo

My area of the company is reorganizing.  I work for a company that has always prided themselves on no bullshit and hard work.  That seems to be slipping. 


We bought another company and my company is so worried about hurting the feelings of the people that we bought they are alienating the good people they already had.

They are bringing over people from that other company that are buzzword professionals. I hate buzzwords.  They are usually accompanied with by someone speaking to someone else like they are an idiot.

My least favorite word in the English language:  SYNERGY

Rapidly closing in on second place:           GOVERNANCE



My faith in my company, and most of humanity, is decaying each time I hear those words.
