me: *writes ‘delightful’ in a work email*
my brain: oh wow. look at you. writing like a 2017 tech blog post. what next? ‘delivered with care’? maybe ‘thoughtful UX’?
me, shaking: it was… a nice update
brain: delightful 😌✨
Hard to believe we used to write emails like:
"Dear Sandra, I hope this note finds you well."
And now it's:
"Per our last sync, attaching v3 of the GTM so we can align pre-read before EOW. LMK if blockers."
We've evolved. Just... not upward. 📉💼 #CorporateLingo
AI won’t take your job, it’ll just rewrite your emails so they sound like a guy named Brad who read one leadership book in 2014. 📈🤖
"Circling back on this to see if we can align on synergies." Brad, we sell chairs. #AI #CorporateLingo
Just got an email that said:
"Kindly circling back on this."
Which is corporate for:
"I haven’t forgotten. You *will* suffer."
AI voice: "As an AI language model, I don't have emotions."
Me, after spending 40 minutes rewriting a Slack message so I don’t sound like a serial killer: same 🥲 #CorporateLingo #AIvibes
"What is your motivation for working with us?" #corporatelingo
I wish we could all show up to interviews and just say: "Give money and I will do sh*t for you" 😂
