productivity

Productivity is a never ending cycle. You can never be productive enough.
So what if instead of us humans getting tired our computers would start saying "Please, I'm tired."?

I wish my productivity was higher but my computer keeps falling asleep every 5 minutes.

proactive policing

Proactive policing is a law enforcement strategy focused on preventing crime before it occurs, rather than merely responding to criminal activity after the fact. It often involves anticipating potential criminal activity, identifying risks, and addressing underlying causes through methods such as community engagement, targeted patrols, predictive analytics, and problem-solving initiatives. This approach contrasts with reactive policing, which centers on responding to crimes once they have been committed.

Proactive policing, such as setting up DUI checkpoints during holiday weekends, aims to deter impaired driving before accidents occur.

• His proactive outsourcing game is strong: he starts every meeting with action items he never touches.

Sarcastically Proactive

To be sarcastically proactive is to be active in what you're currently or about to do as well as being sarcastic about it. This is mostly found in people with either sarcastic or emo-like personalities.

"Oh there she goes again, being sarcastically proactive in shelving those boxes..."
"Hey Mike, quit being sarcastically proactive and be ACTUALLY proactive."
"Why is everyone in the room saying I'm sarcastically proactive? All I did was place the pens in the envelope box..."
