Creative ways to say "I don't give a fuck" professionally

  Nobody is remotely fooled by these, especially if they're proceeded by a good ten minutes of eye rolling, distain or fidgeting. Seriously: if you really DGAF they know. How do I know? Because I routinely DGAF, have used all of these, and I get told afterward. Everybody knows.

    They are not meant to fool anyone. Can't say I find them professional in anyway.

  My favorite is US Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch's "Putting that aside."

  Reminds me of a time when I was a dev team lead and I needed a decision on something that affected my team's work. Either choice was fine for us; we just needed a decision so we could get started. I really didn't want to get involved in the decision making process. This manager had a history of reversing his decisions depending on who he spoke to most recently. So I was all set. Go into his office and ask for a decision. That's all I need. But he can't make decisions, that's the problem. So he asked me to explain both options and give my opinion on the pros and cons of each. Ugh. I didn't care about this. Eventually we had a decision. A week later he changed his mind and we had some rework to do.
