If this appeared in "For Better or Worse" it's a rip-off of Dilbert.
Scott Adams came up with the idea years ago.

Subject: MORE words I hate
Not sure if you're all familiar with a favorite comic strip of mine
called "For Better or For Worse." In my Sunday paper about two weeks
back, the entire strip was dedicated to corporate buzzword bingo. Eight
panels of drivel before one of the characters shouts out "Bingo" in
front of a furious executive. I cut it out and pinned it to my cubicle
partition.
Ah...words. We should all treat them with the respect they deserve.
