can we please just have one day where no one asks me to "reach out" to anyone about anything? like, just say "call me" or "email me" and spare me the vague corporate jargon, thanks

what the fuck? "reach out" is a totally normal way to say contact someone.

Do you think it's just the phrase itself or is it more that people are using it as a passive-aggressive way of pushing responsibility onto others?

what's the big deal with "reach out"? it's just a polite way to ask someone to contact you. stop being so uptight about every little thing, jeez.

Why is "reach out" so implicitly linked to productivity in our culture that we can't even speak to our friends and family without using it?

lmao i'm pretty sure "reach out" is just corporate code for "i'm too busy/lazy to tell you what i actually need

um no thats a weird expectation? it sounds like you just want to maintain boundaries you can easily say "i don't feel like talking right

tell me you've had to deal with a monster of a manager without saying you've had to deal with a

definition of 'circle back' should just be 'never actually call you

idk what's wrong with "reach out"... it's just a nice way of saying talk to someone, chill

idk guys, 'reach out' is just code for "we're too scared to tell you no

Ever think it's not about clarity, but about not actually wanting you to follow up?

idk what you're complaining about, "reach out" is a perfectly fine way to phrase it, it's just more

god, seriously. what's the deal with "reach out"? isn't that just a roundabout way of saying "contact" or "get in touch"? why do we have to overengineer every little thing with these weird corporate euphemisms?

are you kidding me? "reach out" is just a nicer way of saying "i need you to do this tedious task but i dont want to directly ask you

deadass, i feel that. might as well just throw a dart at the office buzzword bingo card and see what nonsense we land

lol yeah, or better yet, just say "hey, can we grab coffee?" or something, that's all the communication skills some people need

dude that's not that bad, people like clarity in communication, no need to be snarky

lmao yessss can we also please just add "" and "disrupt" to the list of forbidden words

i feel this so much. its like why do people always have to use these weird corporate buzzwords instead of just being

god, the "reach out" shit drives me up the wall. like just say "call me" or "send me an email" ffs.

tbh i'm so with you on this. can we also ditch the "let's schedule a call to discuss" when all they really want is a yes or no answer?

or they just say "just google it" and save us all the agony

lol seriously, "reach out" is the new "synergize" 🤔 they should just say "call me, i need something" and get to the point 😂

reach out to your manager about that one

fr, that corporate speak is the worst. like just tell me what you need instead of beating around the bush. i'm tryna get shit done.

lol no one's tripping over "reach out" come on

omg yes, same. and can we also just axe the whole "circle back" thing while we're at it

fr like why do people always have to use those weird corporate terms? just say what you mean ffs.

my god, yes! "Reach out" is the worst. Just tell me what you need, none of this vague corporate nonsense. I'm so tired of decoding these weird business buzzwords.

nah, "reach out" is just a nicer way of sayin "do this thing for me" and i'm good with that, don't be so extra

Lol preach, I'm so over it. Can we also add "circle back" and "touch base" to the list? Let's keep it real, people

you ever notice how corporate America loves to make us all sound like we're in a job interview 24/7?

right? what is the deal with "reaching out"? is that supposed to make it sound more polite or something? just tell me what you need.

if you can't handle a little bit of corporate speak then maybe you're the one who needs to "reach out" to a therapist about your stress

oh come on, "reach out" is a perfectly fine way to ask someone to contact someone else.

haha i feel that so hard. "reach out" is the most useless corporate buzzword. how about we just say "get in touch" and call it a day?

what's the point of "reaching out" if you're just gonna ask me to call or email anyway?

are you kidding me? saying "reach out" is literally just a polite way of saying "call me or email

who actually talks like that in real life, tho

tell me you work in an office without actually telling me you work in an office

Totally agree! And while we're at it, can we also ditch the phrase "circle back with you"? Who comes up with this stuff?

uh not really a fan of playing it both ways. either ask me to reach out or don't ask for anything.

same goes for 'circle back' can we just circle forward to the part where i know what you're actually asking me to do

u need to get over it, "reach out" doesn't actually require you to lift a finger, it's just saying be on call, not do all the work

lol "reach out"? more like "slide into their dms" amirite?

What's wrong with just saying what you mean in the first place?

what are you, the corporate word police? get over yourself, "reach out" is a perfectly fine way to say "contact" - stop trying to police how people communicate just because you don't like it.

lol if i had a dollar for every time someone told me to "circle back" i'd have enough money to hire someone to circle

reach out or get left behind, right?

omg same. and can we also make it stop with the "circling back" nonsense?

same. and can we also please just say 'i dont know' instead of 'i'll look into it and get back to you'?

same, and while we're at it, can we also retire "circle back" and "touch base"?

same, that's literally the most annoying phrase people use - "lets touch base" what even is that

fr tho. reach out is the worst corporate buzzword, it's so vague. just tell me to call or email, i'll figure it out.

ikr, so annoying. like just be direct ffs, i don't need all that corporate bs. just say what you mean smh.

no, actually "reach out" is a great way to acknowledge that the next step is ambiguous and you

100% with you on this. and can we also kill the phrase "based on feedback from the team" next? seems like a cop-out for "i didn't check for myself

same, just get a real invite, "reach out" is just code for "don't expect a response

seriously, who actually says "reach out" anymore? we all know what you mean, just say the damn thing.

it's not that deep, dude. it's just polite communication, dont be so salty

are corporations that insist on "reaching out" even real or are they just simulating humans in some lagging pds project?

did they also give you a cookie cutter response to use when you inevitably get asked to "synergize"

imagine thinking "reach out" is corporate jargon. do you need a hug or something?

nah, reach out is a perfectly fine way to ask someone to get in touch. stop being so uptight about it, jeez.

reach out is a perfectly fine way to say "contact" someone. stop being so dramatic about it, jeez.

are you kidding me, corporate jargon is the least of your problems, some people are actually anxious about calling or emailing, "reach out" is a valid way to include those folks.

whatever, i don't know what your deal is but "reach out" is a normal way to ask someone to contact

are you kidding me, "reach out" isn't corporate jargon, it's an attempt to give people space, not a lot of ppl want to be cc'd or copied on

ugh, i hate that vague corporate bs too. but "reach out" is a perfectly normal way to say "get in

preach, and can we also please retire 'circle back' while we're at it? like, just say 'I'll talk to you later' and be done with it

haha can we also make '' and 'disrupt' forbidden words on that day

lmao what's wrong with saying "reach out"? it's literally just a nicer way of saying "get in touch"

can we just stop pretending corporate jargon is bad and everyone hates it? it's a facade, we all understand what it means.

Are you kidding me? 'Reach out' is a completely normal and harmless phrase, it's not that deep. Can we please just not be so sensitive about language?

tf? no, reaching out is a perfectly fine way to say that. get over yourself.

can we also just have one day where '' isn't a verb?

lmao for real, "reach out" is the most corporate bs i've ever heard.

ikr, the whole "reach out" thing is so pretentious. like just say what you mean ffs.

amen to that, it's like they want you to guess what they actually want haha

same and i hate that "reach out" nonsense. sounds like someone's trying to avoid actually doing any work.

same lol, "" is just code for "i have no idea what ya do

no, people who say 'reach out' are just being polite and trying not to be pushy, calm down

yeah right, because 'reach out' is just a euphemism for 'we're gonna make you sit through a

seriously, our company handbook is just a bunch of Therapy Bingo cards with better formatting

why do people keep saying "reach out"? what's wrong with just saying "contact me"?

imagine thinking "reach out" is corporate jargon, not just a common way to say "get in touch.

yes, omg so annoying. and don't even get me started on when they ask to "loop me in" or "ping me" 🙄 can we just speak

HAHA same, I've been taught to say "touch base" but I just whisper to people instead

yeah and can we also have a day where 'circle back' means literally turning around in a circle and not just a euphemism for 'i'm never

omg yes and can we also please axe the "circle back" nonsense too? just say what you mean, it's not that hard

it's not that deep, 'reach out' is just a polite way to say 'contact me' without specifying the method, calm down

Can you really not appreciate that "reach out" is just code for "don't bother calling me during actual office hours, i'm busy on meetings"?

totally agree with you - "reach out" is just a euphemism for 'i don't want to put any real effort into this conversation'. it's time for honesty in our communication.

omg i'm gonna reach out to you about how much i agree with this

PREACH - and can we also ban the phrase 'touch base' while we're at it? Like, I'm a software engineer, not a baseball player

nah fam, "reach out" is a perfectly good phrase. you sound like a real corporate drone who can't handle a lil professional courtesy.

are you serious? how do you still have a job if you're so sensitive to buzzword Bingo?

your puritanical hate for corporate jargon aside, "reach out" is a nice euphemism for hard conversations.

omg yessss and can we also ditch "" and "disruptor" while we're at it?

do you actually think people are gonna stop using it just cuz you asked nice?
