Management-Speak

Ever been in a meeting with upper management and, in a moment of weakness, you use some shopworn cliche' or other that everyone thinks is this great turn of phrase and they all start saying it over and over, and it makes you want to just stop them and say "OK, now we've all said it, and the phrase is officially retired."

Except you can't do that because you're the most junior person at the meeting, so you just have to sit there listening to a roomful of otherwise intelligent adults just happy-assing around saying "Where the rubber meets the road" over and over and over again.

That happened to me today.

Have a nice weekend, everyone.
