#“Last night’s Apprentice UK reminded me of these”
I had the Dilbert "Utilize Synergy" strip pinned to my cubicle from the mid 90s to 2001.
That strip sat alongside the classic Wally "I leveraged synergy across all technology platforms" and the all-time-great "Let's form proactive synergy restructuring teams".
Here we are 10 years later and the type of people who apply to be on The Apprentice in the UK and Ireland still think words like "Fusion" "Synergy" and "Apollo" are something other than laughable.
I wait in hope for an ex-Philips employee to go on The Apprentice and insist on calling themselves Tiger Team.
To be fair to the UK Apprentice, they are pulling the same smart trick as the current US one by having someone on the show with a severe personality disorder (no not Donald). It keeps it edgy!
