Subordinate: "Hey, I finished that project you asked me to do."
Manager: "Thanks, I'll let my boss know. Good work!"
Manager to Manager's Boss: "Hey, look at this thing we made, cool huh?"
Co-worker to Subordinate: "Hey, didn't you write that policy?"

Used when a person suggests completing a task that they can easily accomplish to someone else, with no real intention of helping out.
'We should clean off the sidewalk.'
'By we you mean me and Scott, right?'
Aside to Scott 'The royal we.'

In the BSA, this is the stage between Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts, and the number #1 reason why boys drop out of the BSA. They don't want to say, "We are WE BLOWS".
MOM: Peter, Bobby, you are no longer cub scouts. Pretty soon you will be able to say "We are WE BLOWS".
PETER: Mom, can we quit, and join back up when we're old enough to be boy scouts?

The most patriotic slogan for yelled by the American people who are tired of being lead astray.
The slogan We will not comply! is a great way to express dismay about the political climate.

Phrase used to suggest something. You can use "Come we" as you would "Let's...".
"Come we go to the shop." (Let's go to the shop.)
