Major Powell

To seize a creative opportunity through raw energy and impulsive action.
I pulled a Major Powell and asked the woman if I could buy the jacket off her back. She was delighted to sell it to me and I resold it at a 200% profit on Craigslist.

If you get Powelled, it is ironic because it is Jerome Powell and the Frderal Reserve that kept interest rates at multi decade lows, which is probably why you got the job in the first place.
