A deep dive into the coworkers who are always “busy”… but never actually working.

They’ve always got a meeting, their Slack status is constantly “In Focus Mode,” and yet—somehow—nothing ever gets done. This week, Emily and Elyssa break down the office phenomenon of fake productivity: the people who’ve mastered looking busy while producing zilch. We unpack why this behavior often flies under the radar, how it impacts real performers, and the subtle signs you’re working with a corporate illusionist.

Clock-in for passive-aggressive email drama, buzzword Olympics, and our hot takes on the worst fake-busy habits in the game.
