When I drew pay at the bank, the President and I kept an ongoing list of phrases and words that needed to be ixednay asap. We were so over it. I hope he is still keeping the list going. I know it’s still in his head. Many of these annoying words are used primarily in everyday conversation, when Facebooking or text messaging. LOL they are smooth worn out.

And, thinking outside the box. What’s wrong with being inside the box? I would not, could not, in a box or with a fox. My bad! Your bad what? Your bad grammar?
In the BIG-bidness world, there are many obnoxious phrases that need to, like, totally disappear.
“When you pencil it out with the major players going dark, the hard corner would be cash neutral even with ground up construction. Let’s drill down and revisit these mission critical actionable items in next week’s focus group maintaining full transparency, of course.” Totally. Huh?
At the end of the day, this makes me want to puke. Seriously, just saying.
