Racheling

1. The act of bullshitting. Racheling is the ability of making one look alert and attentive during meetings when in fact they are either not paying attention or bored out of their mind. A person who has successfully mastered the art of Racheling appears to show up to meetings prepared with assignments "completed," and can chime in with valid and relevant comments that makes them sound well versed in the subject being covered. 2. The act of "reading" a book or article without actually reading it. Racheling lasts no more than five minutes, and consists of marking pages of a book with sticky notes to identify important pages. Racheling is also the act of highlighting and underlining words and phrases in the book or article. In order to make the book or article appear to have really been well read, and read multiple times, pages are often bent or crumpled just a little.
