I pride myself on having never used any corporate bullshit speak since I started here.
I would willingly rip off my own testicles if I ever succumbed to such nonsense.

However. I get the feeling that I'm treated with suspicion when I avoid using such terms in favour of proper sentences.

"Ach, I'll speak to XXX and see what the deal is. In the future I'll make sure we do that from the start."

"I will ping XXX an email and then touch base. Going forward this is a procedure that must be actioned prior to any decision."

There's a thesis in here somewhere.
Do the (aspiring) managing classes invent their own cockney? Is it to reasure themselves they have the biggest tribe? Is it to identify outsiders?
