Let’s face facts. Most of us don’t like filing but neither do we like having an inefficient office, whether that’s at home or not.

🧵 The Funniest Office Jargon Explained: Why We Say the Weird Things We Say at Work 🧵 Ever wonder why we throw around certain phrases at work that sound downright strange? Let’s break down some classic office jargon and what they really mean.

🧨The Word Nobody Asked For: ▶︎ Word of the Week: Hyperbureaucratificationalism ▶︎ Meaning: The tendency to create unnecessarily complex procedures and paperwork for the simplest of tasks, ensuring nothing gets done without at least five meetings and twenty forms. ▶︎ Context: At your last quarterly strategy session, the team started off with a simple request: order new office supplies. What could be easier? But then hyperbureaucratificationalism set in. Suddenly, there was a “Supplies Strategy Committee,” a three-page form to fill out for each pen, and a four-person approval process just to buy paper clips. By the time everything was signed off, the supply closet was as empty as your will to live. ▶︎ Practical Usage: Try slipping hyperbureaucratificationalism into your next department meeting. Just make sure no one suggests adding it to the company’s official lexicon—they’ll probably create a task force for it. #TheWordNobodyAskedFor #NewWordsNobodyNeeds #RidiculousButPractical #ComedicComplications #WordOfTheWeek
