I heard "we must be agile" so many times at work that I don't know what that means anymore.

most people in management don't either, yet they will parade it around

Maybe try picturing what the opposite of "agile teams" looks like?

Working for the government is not agile. 6 months of 4 levels government employees losing your signed pdf.

Sure I will be happy to digitally sign that pdf again. If you promise not to lose it this time.

Wait the date is too old?

Ok let me do that again for you.
