Corporate Passive Aggressive

A dialect of Corporate Jargon intended to convey rude messages in a “professional” manner.
Examples of Corporate Passive Aggressive:

As per my previous email: Did you not read what I sent you?

Walk me through your thought process on this one: What were you thinking, you fool?

I’ve received feedback from your coworkers: Nobody likes you

This was identified early on as a possible outcome: I told you so

For future reference: How do you not already know this?

I’ve CC’d in your manager: You wanna say that shit in front of Steve?

We’ve decided to separate your employment: you’re fired

Hollow Passive-Aggressive

A special breed of passive-aggressive behavior that feels nice on the surface but is completely fake, emotionally empty, and served with a side of sarcasm. It’s the art of acting supportive, polite, or complimentary — but you know deep down they don’t mean a single word of it.

Think: Smiling shade. Pretty words, petty intentions. The emotional equivalent of a cardboard hug.

Examples:
“Oh wow, you wore that? So brave of you.”

“Thank you for your opinion. It's definitely... something.”

Of course I’ll help. I love picking up other people’s slack!”

“Her compliment about my promotion was so hollow passive-aggressive, I almost thanked her before realizing it was pure shade.”
