preactive

Coined in the world of public relations, preactive refers to a statement issued that appears to react to something you know will be said by someone else, often a competitor. Can be used to take the sting out of a rival's expected announcement or 'coup'. Similar to pretaliate, but without the nastiness.

Knowing that regular customer Wyle E. Coyote was likely to slam himself into the face of a cliff, ACME issued a preactive statement at the same time they shipped his shoulder-mounted rocket-propelled grappling hook, warning people against the dangers of mis-using hi-tech products and tools.

Looking Busy, Feeling Productive

What most incompetent, ineffective, or unethical workers do every day to remain on the payroll, or to avoid being fired.

Gullible bosses mistake busyness and long hours for productivity or good work ethics, because their staff are always looking busy, feeling productive all the time.
