Today’s decoder: touch base.
  1. The literal version sounds athletic. The office version usually means a meeting with no new information.
  2. In the wild: someone asks to touch base tomorrow, then everyone politely donates 15 minutes to uncertainty.
  3. Plain English: Send me the status by 3 PM. If blocked, name the blocker.
Same calories. Fewer meetings.
