shleader 

Shleader is a sheep disguised as a leader in typically large organizations. Person usually holds a position of authority and power but fails to act with leadership and typically does not have a back-bone, integrity, transparency and fails to act, raise difficult conversations or facts to colleagues or those in position of authority over them. Instead shleaders choose to allow unethical behaviours, falsehoods, wrongdoings to continue by either turning a blind eye or by actively participating in them.
Recent Penn State Affair and failure of officials within the organization to act when provided information about potential sexual abuse of young children by well known football coach.

Countless "leaders" in government and large private institutions choose to be shleaders in order to keep the peace with colleagues, maintain employment and not risk their place in the organization.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
