When people say 'aks' instead of 'ask'. It has three letters, put them in order! And anything that comes out of that **** Blair's mouth!

I heard plenty of annoying phrases when i've been in management or team meetings, a group of us used to spice them up by playing buzzword bingo. The Dilbert cartoon explains what i'm on about if none of you have ever played.



The management at my old company used to spout so many annoying phrases and buzzwords that getting a full house wasn't difficult

"At this moment in time"
"Chick-Flick"
"Drop-Dead gorgeous"

Are the ones I can think of immediately....no doubt there are more...

OH! One particular phrase that I am beginning to loathe, despise, detest!!!! [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] is

"Hi, this is (insert name here) from North Carolina....I've got a ticket to pop into your queue..."
