Words I hate

[Ennui]

"to be honest"
"know what I mean?"
"you get me?"
and the worst of the lot, "you know"

[Ennui]

I once worked for a woman who would often end her statements with "am I right or am I right?". She was usually neither.

Proactive

What was so wrong with active that it needed a pro?

[Swamp Thing]

1. "It's all good" (translation: we're up sh1t creek)
2. "We need to take a view on that" (translation: we haven't got a chuffing clue about that issue)
3. "We need to take that back to the business (translation: as 2.)
4. "We need to get more sticky with our customers" (translation: we're haemorraging revenue, don't know how to stop it, but frequent use of this buzz-phrase will keep me in my job for another 3 months)
5. "Your business model is all wrong" (translation: we don't like/understand what you've presented, but if we describe it as a 'model' you might go away and do another wasted month of rework while we get a breather)
6. "That's a good challenge, but..." (translation: don't pester us with rational argument)

All uttered by permies (feck'n permies...)

It doesn't suggest taking the initiative.

I personally hate the term "hard working families"

Hazel Beers.

It's simply not funny and she's minging ging with a spooky Stepford Wive's media-trained smile that only nuliebour bots seem to get.

and as for merchandising with her campaign for deputy leadership with beer mats, baseball caps, cups, buttons, hoodies, clocks (FFS!)

Good on the Lib Dem activists who are handing out T-shirts nearby saying:

"I'm a minger"
