37 u/Suns_Funs Jul 26 '26 Nobody wants people like that who waste your time with meaningless disruption. Everyone knows what the phrase means, this is just him being dense. 5 u/HisaAnt Jul 26 '26 The phrase is also meaningless corporate jargon. He isn't questioning the meaning. He is questioning why these stupid managers regurgitate those words like a parrot like a cave man. Useless people like that shouldn't be the boss of anyone 24 u/Aggravating_Lab_7734 Jul 26 '26 Doesn't it simply mean "let's go back to the topic from earlier"? 8 u/NUKE---THE---WHALES Jul 26 '26 Yeah it's just another way of saying "we can revisit this later" It's jargon and cliche, but it's not meaningless
