“Task-Oriented”

Whenever a job is posted and the bloviating description of what said job entails occurs, there is inevitably the term “task-oriented” bandied. In keeping with the typicalness of the vagaries of corporate speak, this turn of phrase can really mean any number of things:

  1. It can mean you’re good at sucking dick
  2. It can mean you’re really good at doing one thing: sucking dick

In any case, landing the position requires that you at least once mention how “task-oriented” you are, and then proceed to show just how much you mean it.
