Do you cringe when people say they "pivoted"?

  • I've noticed an increase in the use of the word "pivot" but not in the context of changing careers. That's a new one for me. Seems like a poor choice of words in that context.

    But yeah, it seems like it's the latest buzz word along with the phrase "circle back". I think people pick this shit up from political talk and then use it to sound "In the know."

    • Yeah, or ‘unpacking’.

      As if what you’re telling them is just so overwhelming, they need to unpack it. An ex-therapist of mine said that from time to time and it just made me feel weird or stupid for venting.
