Every day at work, my inbox is flooded with corporate emails filled with buzzwords. Some I get, but others just drive me nuts. The one that truly gets under my skin? “Revert.” Like, why can’t we just say “reply”? 😂 I used to think it meant going back to something! Some phrases like “align” or “touch base” I can live with, but others feel like fluff. Curious—what are your most loved and hated business buzzwords? Let’s make a list of the ones we secretly roll our eyes at!

Yes! “Actionables” makes me cringe a bit just call it tasks? And “touch base” sounds weirdly intimate for work 😅 But I do say “loop you in” way too often. Can’t help it :P it’s addictive!
