Refletch
*re·fletch | \ ˈrē-flech *
To deflect blame or work with such skill and agility that it almost seems reflexive, particularly in a work environment. This maneuver involves a swift redirection of responsibility, often leaving colleagues baffled and burdened.
To avoid accountability with such finesse that it borders on an art form, often accompanied by an immediate and intuitive response that ensures the Refletcher remains unscathed by deadlines, duties, or direct questions.
To blame previous employees for current issues, with a scope that can stretch back 10 years or more, demonstrating a profound mastery of historical deflection and a deep archive of scapegoats.
To require multiple requests to navigate past the initial refletching, as the first, second, and sometimes third attempts at delegation or clarification are skillfully deflected.
