“meh” in the middle
English
Other
General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Hello everyone,
Remember, haters are not the problem. . . . Ignoring them is. The real problem for your business is the people who have a poor experience but are not passionate enough about you and your com-pany to take the time to say something about it in a form or fashion that you can find and act upon. They are the “meh” in the middle, and they are what kills businesses.
What does “meh” in the middle mean?
Thank you.

an indifferent "whatever"
Maybe this is referring to the game "pig in the middle", when two people pass a ball to each other and a third person who is supposed to stand in the middle (called the "pig") tries to catch it.
I understood the "meh" to mean "whatever" you know, like somebody shrugging their shoulders and saying, it's just a job like any other. This person is not passionate about their job, doesn't care about it at all.

"used to show that you are not interested in someone or something or do not care about him, her, or it:
"Hurry up, or you'll be late for school." "Meh."
