With all due respect, except when you really mean to tell someone you think they're an idiot.

Heh. My boss reminded everyone that we're in the "4th inning" on such and such a project. She obvs meant 4th quarter or 9th inning.

Hilarious. I don' know if I could ever respect boss again. Or at least refrain from laughing at every meeting. Or resist every temptation to say "Ok, like 4th inning?"

I loved "going forward" when I first heard it. So overused now.

Cutesy names for disciplinary action also kill me. "Personal development plan"? Give me a break.

I despise "pain point" and "shoot me an e-mail."
