Whilst it is true that there is no “I” in team, there is ‘at me’, and ‘meat’.

Mediocre managers have been using the phrase ‘There is no I in team.’ for many years, but it has recently come to light that there are other anagrams of the word.

Lexicologists have been working hard for years, and have finally made a breakthrough that would make a Countdown viewer blush that they had not thought of it.

In plain sight all along, it seems that although there is no ‘I’ in team there is a ‘Me.’ Who saw that coming?

‘Management consultants the world over are going to have to review their frankly brainless PowerPoint presentations now.’ Said Professor Sarah Westmoreland from the Institute for The Hitherto Blindingly Obvious. ‘The costs to be businesses could be astronomical.’

When she was asked if her work brought her any joy, the Professor remarked ‘Of course, if it means that I don’t ever have to hear that ill thought out phrase trotted out by an imbecile in a cheap suit I think we can all agree that the work was worth it.’

Twitter was alive with hashtags this morning and hilarious pseudo celebrities helped fill pages and pages of information grazing aggregating websites with stolen* content.

One Twitter user, called @DaveTheCannibal, who wished to remain anonymous, said that you could see the word ‘meat’ in there as well but when he bought that up in a mandatory work course on acceptable behaviour they forced him to see a psychiatrist.

*Obviously not stolen, just jokes ‘borrowed’ from people on Twitter which they then repurpose to deliver eyes to their own adverts to get paid but giving the original creator nothing save brief notoriety. What do you mean bitter?
