Had a manager try jargon speak on me. He heard it in meetings and thought it sounded smart.

I dispelled him of that illusion.

"Use real words boss. Save that crap for the people who like to talk a lot and tell you nothing."

Didn't get a raise, but he started being way more lenient. Always been a Kings Fool.
