    Na this is real. Even office language is fluid and coworkers love improvising all turns of phrase. Besides, just because the author isn’t intending to convey information through something doesn’t mean that there is no meaning to derive. Relenting to the idea there is no meaning without at least trying to find one is just a practice in being ignorant. Language is abstract and subjective and when you think you’re being random you can accidentally reveal more than you might think. Either way it’s at least fun to guess what these coworkers came away thinking these phrases mean
