Don’t Use Technobabble Minifesto

1. Do not speak to me in technobabble and think you will impress me with the extent of your technical know-how. You won’t.

2. Do not speak to me without asking me if I have some knowledge of the technical aspects of whatever it is you want to sell or tell me.

3. Do not speak to me if you assume I already understand your acronyms and what you want to tell me.

4. Do not speak loudly to me in technobabble in order to impress me who is standing 2 feet away from you or to impress the group of managers or potential customers standing 30 yards away. If you do, you will see my back walking away from you and the looks from the group of people that communicate “You wanker!”

5. Please speak to me in my mother tongue using terms I completely understand. This way we will have a good conversation and I will learn from you rather than think you are a rude and arrogant twit.
