Ever sat through a meeting where someone suggested you "circle back" before "boiling the ocean"-only to wonder if you're working in an office or starring in a bizarre improv show? Buzzwords, Banter, and Bullsh*t: The Colorful Language of the American Workplace is a hilarious deep dive into the figurative language that infiltrates the corporate world, from investment banking boardrooms in New York City to oil trading floors in Houston. With sharp wit and keen observation, this book celebrates the quirky, overused, and utterly ridiculous expressions that make mundane workdays bearable. From barnyard metaphors to outdated analogies, these phrases unite us in shared amusement, mutual irritation, and the endless cycle of emails, spreadsheets, and status updates. Collected from real workplaces across industries and regions, this book is both a tribute and a roast of the language we use to survive corporate life-one jargon-filled catchphrase at a time.
