       Enterprise Role Play (ERP), sometimes also Enterprise Resource Play: A unique form of fetish role play.Unlike more popular fantasies such as boss/secretary focused on power relationships in an office environment, in ERP the business processes themselves are central to the scenario.ERP participants can create elaborate scenarios involving fictional purchasing departments, legal teams, contract negotiations, and more. Large group ERP scenarios sometimes even extend to the point of renting out vacant space in an office park and acquiring demo licenses of SAP or a competing software package to make the fantasy more realistic, or even traveling to a remote ERP group's dungeon to roleplay a merger or acquisition.As with more conventional roleplays in the S&M context, consent is critical in ERP. If participants are expected to invest significant real-world money in software licenses, make sure this is agreed upon by everyone in advance. The outcome of all merger scenarios should be pre-briefed; attempted hostile takeovers of another dungeon are extremely frowned upon and can result in participants being banned from future events.

       (I saw a post from somebody's account about ERP that I assume was *supposed* to mean "erotic role play" but this is where my brain went...)

       @whitequark it would be hilarious if this became a real thing where people live out their fantasies of safe, respectful middle management actually focused on creating a cooperative work environment and delivering high quality, long lasting products that meet the customer's needs rather than treating the customer and employees as a resource to be extracted

       @whitequark like if anybody is going to create this kind of work environment at an IRL company it would absolutely be the kink community

       @azonenberg At first I couldn't tell if this was real or not, but then I realized that just by writing this you have made it real.
