I’m so fucking tired of working with people in the enterprise who just cannot accept that they don’t understand what you are talking about and try to create flowery language to get around the simple fact that they either don’t know about what you are talking about or are otherwise hesitant to say, “No, I don’t know.” Even worse when it becomes a pissing match in a meeting and people are having to listen to two people slug it out because their egos are all invested and now they have a fucking audience including their manager. Bottom line, many things about enterprise work are just bullshit. I hate that I have to play this game again, or even observe and listen to it, but it’s the job and people have to get used to it. But please, leave your ego at the door and just own when you don’t understand or don’t have experience with something. Otherwise, it never ends well.
