So correct. Except I'm not really sure that we'll hit the ground. But this has always been the difference between you and I. 
And the pretense doesn't just apply to corporate America. It also applies to government, sex, relationships, and ... I hate to shock everyone ... so is fashion

Ugh. We're all too busy complaining to worry about who's piloting the plane and what they are throwing.
People find new ways of congratulating themselves for increasing their own pay rates all the time... that includes silently nodding at whatever someone says that brings meetings to a conclusion so that they can stand up and get the hell out of the meeting. (that would be me)
What you said... someone out there might want to know: CRM = customer relationship management, API = application protocol interface, M.C. application metrics are the agreed objective rates or measure applied before starting a project as to what a successful result would look like and the rest is fairly obvious. It doesn't mean nothing. In fact, I wish more people would take the time to really understand what that does mean so that us programmers didn't have to revise shit twenty times because everyone was nodding without really thinking... or standing and spouting and getting others to nod and agree (it is excused when you just want them to write the damn checkafter the 50th revision or change of mind) Sometimes, I would agree with the analogy of the monkeys throwing shit at each other... I mean, that's pretty much just a literal description of the truth in this world anyway. The big question is why we all eat so much shit. TV, politics, censorship of both... man, it just doesn't stop. We even pick and choose which lives are worth more based on our ancestral exposure to the sun's rays. (ref. Rwanda mid-90's)
Anyway... you had that ephiphany a long time ago. I remember. Maybe for your own sanity you just forgot you had it so that you wouldn't jump out your window and land in front of a Muni train.
My Mom's advise when I moved out keeps getting more and more pertinent... "wear clean underwear, when you go somewhere new bring lots of toilet paper and don't kiss women with bad breath".

I'm not too sure we'll hit the ground either. If I believed that, then what would be the point? Besides, I usually have a parachute, just in case. Some days YOU are the parachute.
