In a business environment, everyone plays their roles as designed and expected.
The natural hierarchy is rarely rocked, due to the fear of sticking out, seeming petty, and of being blackballed.
Vendors over laugh at jokes to secure contracts, CEOs compliment staff in public because they once read something that says to compliment people in public, and nervous account executives overemphasize their local weather to open up zoom calls.
Essentially, everyone does and acts as predicted and as they are supposed to.
Kayfabe is rarely broken.

Yurk: Hey, how is that RFP you are working on, I know it has been taking up alot of your time.
Rick: It has. I feel like breaking White Collar Kayfabe and just telling the prospect how smart they would look to their bosses by going with us, and how their history of stealing ideas from RFPs and labelling them as their own is why other companies don't want to work with them, but I can't. I have to play *THE GAME*.
Yurk: Ya, you definitely CAN'T break White Collar Kayfabe, you would get blackballed in your industry.

When a very hairy-chested man has gone the entire night without scoring a girl, in a last ditch attempt to get anyone's attention before the bar closes, he unbuttons the top few buttons of his shirt and shows of his sasquatch-like qualities.
This is the pick-up version of a rally cap in baseball.

Applies to sports bars that are always right near capacity, but you could always find a seat.
These unicorn bars are the best of both worlds for fans: A great atmosphere AND people know they could still get in without reservations.

When a struggling sports team fires their coach, and a new coach comes in and the team initially does really well.
Everyone is all smiles, the new coach tries new things, is fun and upbeat, and seemingly *changes the culture* so the team performs really well.....until they don't.
The few good games are due to excitement, and once the substitute teacher has to be a real teacher, fails spectacularly because he actually has to teach.

Boris: Oh fuck, you see how the new coach has turned this team around. I told you the old guy sucked.
Edgar: Meh, it is the Substitute Teacher Effect, come back to me in 3 months. Team is just playing well. New guy can't coach.
3 months later.....
Edgar: Team sucks, and coach looks really constipated.
Boris: Ya, you were right. Substitute Teacher Effect wins again.

Lance: Man, I cant even get an INTERVIEW for this role and I have all the credentials, how the heck did Keith get the job, he is an actual moron.
Spencer: Keegan's dad is a big deal at the firm, set the whole thing up. His life is an empty net goal.
Lance: Man, I wish MY life was an empty net goal, who the fuck wants to pay a mortgage every month.
Spencer: Ya, the worst is Keith acts like all of this is difficult for him. Like, Brosef, we know your life is an empty net goal and you don't have to worry about your car payments.

A person who makes everyone around them happy, does not do anything particularly complicated or stressful, elicits a smile on the faces of others upon the mere mention of their name, and whom people love being around.
