Flock of Pigeons

A term used to describe when you have more than one supervisor at your workplace, upwards of four.

When there is a Flock of Pigeons flying above you at your place of work, you will be incapable of thinking, making decisions or taking the initiative on your own.

For example, if you come up with an idea to improve worker satisfaction which will lead to increased worker productivity, you will have to bring up that idea to the first Pigeon. The first Pigeon or Pigeon 1 will tell you that it has to discuss with the Pigeon above them before anything is decided. So, Pigeon 1 will head-bob their way to Pigeon 2 and the second Pigeon will also say that it has to take the idea to the Pigeon above them and so on and so forth. After your idea is discussed amongst all the Pigeons, they will come to the conclusion that since the idea was not thought of by the Flock itself, it must be rejected.

All that time wasted discussing the idea itself, no actual work or change happens when the Flock of Pigeons gets together.
Jack: Hey, listen to this. I had an idea to -
Logan: Slow down, I'm going to stop you right there. If you have any idea at all, don't waste your time telling me. You'll have to bring it to the Flock of Pigeons. Then again, it'll be a waste of time either way.
