Oh great, another thrilling conference call!
It’s another typical day in the office, and Banter is all geared up for yet another conference call. With a headset firmly in place, Banter logs into the call, brimming with enthusiasm. "Oh great, another thrilling conference call!" they exclaim, ready to dive into what promises to be a productive session. But little does Banter know, they are about to enter the monotonous world of corporate jargon and endless discussions.
The Reality Sets In
As the minutes tick by, Banter's initial excitement starts to wane. The clock on the wall moves at a snail’s pace, and Banter’s eyes widen with the realization that time isn’t flying as fast as they had hoped. "Wow, time flies when you're having fun..." they think sarcastically, their enthusiasm quickly turning into a sense of impending doom. The meeting is turning out to be exactly what Banter feared – a never-ending session filled with business buzzwords and repetitive updates.
The Frustration Builds
Minutes turn into what feels like hours, and Banter’s patience starts to thin.

"Why won't it end?" they wonder, feeling trapped in an endless loop of corporate clichés. It’s at this moment that Banter realizes they are playing a dreaded game of Business Bullshit Bingo.
A Silent Protest
Determined to make it through the call without losing their cool, Banter reaches for a roll of tape and places a strip over their mouth, resigning to the endless chatter. "If I hear 'synergy' one more time..." they think, rolling their eyes. It’s a silent protest, a way to endure the ordeal without screaming out loud. Banter sits back in their chair, looking at the screen with resignation, while the words "synergy," "bandwidth," and "circle back" continue to fly across the virtual room.
