Process drift

The gradual, often unconscious shift in a work process, system, or organizational behavior away from its original purpose—usually due to routine, habit, or the illusion of progress. Common in corporate, bureaucratic, or tech settings where the system just keeps running… because that’s what it does.

“Why are we still sending daily update emails no one reads?”
“No clue. Classic case of process drift

Process Fossil

A workplace procedure that continues to exist long after technology made it unnecessary, usually defended with the phrase “because that’s how we’ve always done it.”

Often involves unnecessary steps like three paper copies, a signature, and filing paperwork that could have been a spreadsheet, email, or photo.

A process fossil survives purely because nobody in management has updated the system since the 1990s.

“Our office requires three paper copies, a signature, and a receipt attached just to verify a $60 purchase.”

“That’s not accounting… that’s a process fossil.”
