Working With Stupid People

 In my years of the Air Force (1977 to 1999)....I worked with one NCO who usually uttered the term 'fuckery' at least once a week.  This was a term meant to designate a stupid order by the commander we had at the time....who was a full-blown idiot, and college-graduate (actually have some kind of master's degree).

Fuckery usually meant that a process or order had been given....which had little thought put into the effort required, and the degree of success (usually lack of success) to be gained at the end.

Generally, we always did the process/order, but in most results....this never came to be anything you wanted to brag about or write up for a medal.  

I kinda noted the word today....as someone uttered it in describing the financial aspects of the Biden White House, and the way that the credit rating 'fell' yesterday.
