Description:

A blistering takedown of corporate America's favorite linguistic fossil that turns basic competence into mythical heroism. When did simply doing your job become worthy of an outdated catchphrase that sounds like a porta-potty company?

Spice Index:

🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

This rant dissects corporate America's love affair with phrases that turn regular schmucks into mythical heroes. Why? Because we're desperate to believe our soul-crushing 9-to-5 actually matters. "Johnny on the spot" transforms basic competence into legendary achievement—like giving someone a Nobel Prize for remembering to flush. It's our sad attempt to sprinkle magical pixie dust on the mundane hamster wheel we call a career.
