Also "let's take this offline" which just means let's have a different meeting about it, it'll still be online because we're all remote.

See, I would think that would mean for more individual discussion, as in "this isn't relevant to this meeting, why don't you and I talk about this after the meeting or at a later point."

I think everyone has those coworkers who see meetings as an opportunity to ask about things with no relevance to anyone else in the room and makes everybody sit through 10 minutes (per discussion) about an issue that only pertains to them, instead of just going to the manager/whatever's office in their own time to ask about their personal situation.

If it's just to table it until another meeting, though, that doesn't make any sense.

In my experience, “take this offline” means they don’t want to have the discussion in front of present company.

For example, mentioning anything less-than-ideal in a meeting in front of large groups. It’s basically a thinly veiled way to control morale through selective information.

Oh snap I should have read more comments before posting about "double clicking". I hate it.

I've been hearing "velocity" a lot recently and that also makes me cringe.

The first one is an Abomination unto Nuggan. I'm OK with the second one being used in a meeting to divert a topic that needs covered but is getting off tack.

Take it offline as in turning it off? "We're taking the service offline" or "Let's talk about this face to face?"

Do you have a better way to phrase it? I usually see this to mean “focus on this topic rather than get distracted. We can discuss that later” … or I guess that’s a better way to phrase it
