We have a ridiculous word or term for everything nowadays that can be easily described in common terms where you don’t have to learn cultural jargon.

Agree. “Coffee badging” is the mashup of Gen z and tech bro culture. I’ll be glad to hear less from both of these.

Punch the time clock/time keeping system and get the work done. Probably less effort than trying to game the system.

Yeah, same here! Why for pete's sake is it called "coffee-badging?" What has it got to do with coffee?

I’m no longer taking on newly invented words, myself. I’ve heard a couple recently by influencers or whoever but I refuse to learn what they mean. I agree with you. It’s ridiculous.

That is because most any 3rd party company is encouraged to corrupt lingo so as to seem “bleedin edge”. No value, but the turd that approved their expense must point to something.

When I used to travel regularly to conferences and whatnot I decided that any such must provide me with a golden nugget — something worthy and worth sharing. Any that did not meet that minimum was never attended again.
Mind, not “the best thing about this conference”. Rather, this golden nugget justified the entire thing.
