I'm getting very suspicious emails and messages whenever I changed my skype status. My gut feeling says,I'm being watched.

I don't see anyone watching you.

You are not being watched - and by the way, you are nearly out of milk.

I've had a rough week with regards to marketing-speke.
I have three theories.
- People use marketing buzzwords because they simply do not understand what they are talking about.
- People use marketing buzzwords because it makes them feel like they are part of the marketing tribe. Speak how your identifying group speaks: do not be different and stand out.
- People use marketing buzzwords because they honestly believe it will impress their audience.
There's #4 which is "they copy and pasted" but I'm going to discount that one since it's not showing intent, rather laziness.
cheers

Yeah, people use marketing buzzwords because everybody else does.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

See, you're failing to open source your agile orchestration that containerizes your market-speak AI translator in the cloud ecosphere of peers facing similar scaling issues.
But then again, if you actually deployed such an AI, there probably isn't enough bandwidth and servers available to handle the load.

Unfortunately, it's all too often 1.
Why learn what you're talking about, when you can impress people with zero effort? Mind you, that's kinda what marketing is about, so those are the better marketers.Chris Maunder wrote: Speak how your identifying group speaks: do not be different and stand out
That's a precise antithesis of marketing, but it's where most MS users fall. This is the "marketing moron" group, of people who aren't capable of doing their jobs properly, but read enough "self-improvement"* books that they can fake it, and/or stab enough colleagues in the back to get by.
* Actually, it appears that "self-improvement" is a very apt terms for such books, because everyone I know who reads them needs a lot of improvement.

Depends on the colleague.

there are tasks, in particular "it won't take long" tasks that should never be attempted on Friday's.
yes, it's a Murphy derivation
...and why the wise-from-experience folk never do anything after lunch on Friday beyond perhaps filing and cleaning up the desk.

Ye gods, you've got to be kidding! Do you have any idea what sort of unfinished apocalyptic grode-fest might be written on a wayward Post-It™ you find under the pile of fast food wrappers, half-full coffee cups, and partially disassembled prototype hardware on your desk?

Yes... you took it home with you.
Since I started asking for a dinner in return of the IT services, requests have almost vanished. Only people that are in close circle continue asking like good friends and family. They would invite me to dinner anyways from time to time, so no real efford there.
And on top, I try to do things where they see the energy that it sometimes get to repair / set up / whatsoever needs to be done to their gadgets.

... and it's important you make the flight*
... and the train is delayed because of power cuts
... but you arrive just about on time
... and there's F'HUGE queues through security
... and you're sweating like a Tory at an Equality Parade
... and the flight's delayed two hours.
That.

Sorry for the funeral and for the airport thing too...

At least the delayed flight means you have time to grab a pint.
Sorry for your loss, mate.
