Pitch Slap Ass

This certified ass does not build relationships. They build pipelines, and you are in one now. The connection request arrived warm and personal. It said they admired your work. Eleven minutes after you accepted, a message arrived that began quick question and did not contain a question, quick or otherwise. It contained a calendar link. It contained the phrase hop on a call. It contained a value proposition for a problem you did not know you had and have since been told, at length, is urgent. The Committee appreciates the efficiency. Zero small talk. Zero pretense of interest. Straight to the invoice.
