blue-bin thinking

Recycling the same old trash.

From the management fad for "blue-sky thinking", and the blue bins used for recycling household detritus.
Manager: We've got to get our ducks in a row on this new client project.
Worker: Let's do some blue-bin thinking, and really get the ideas flowing.
Manager: Don't you mean blue-sky thinking?
Worker: No, we should just re-use the same old crap we've always used.
