proposal

"Proposal" is what upper management uses when they decide to shit can a whole department, but don't want to say the F word because it's too strong and not enterprise enough. So they replace "we fired people" with "we made them a proposal" and everyone has to act like it totally isn't bullshit. The proposal in question being "Fuck you, you're fired, but let's talk about the terms so that we can use a nicer word when announcing this".
We have made a proposal regarding the structure of the Initech Loser department.
