tell me about it. Just had our "annual company meeting" the term "having said that" along with "that being said" was used x100.

Plus we got this ceo who over articulates everything and TRIES to sound intelligent(nobody even listens to him b/c he's such a train wreck). Instead of saying "AT ALL"...he says "uh TALL". Very annoying and I want to round kick him in his midsection for it....and yes he's an a$$hole along with the other execs I work with.

lolol that sounds dramatically like some of the meetings I am in on a daily basis :D

You're right.  BTW is your dad still working as a tranny prostitute to pay the mortgage?

Don't you hate lazy losers who can't type out "by the way"...

I hate it when people say "You know what I mean" in every sentance

It's  "know what I'm sayin'"

Starting a sentence with LOOK (or listen)  ::)  you hear it all the time on television and in the movies, but never in real life.

"bog"? Perhaps you shouldn't be commenting on lingusitics.

Perhaps you should learn more about the vocabulary in the country that invented English.

It aggravates me to no end man. These clowns waste so much time talking BS. I'm sure you've been in there when they get into a "heated debate/exchange" on some sh*t? It's a freaking power trip with power words to see who owned who....complete BULLSHIT!. Then they brag about it late "see how I challenged him?" "see how he tried to turn me but I took control?" BULL...lol

I could axe kick them all in their left shoulder. Bunch of leg crossing chumps. P.S. I'm the "I could careless" I.T. Director BTW. lol

You know the 80/20 rule? Applies to anything in life - Only 20% of your meetings will be productive and see real benefit in regards of decission making - 80% is for people that need to justify their
positions or bullshit.

Thanks for the advice. I'm familiar with 80/20 but never applied it in that department. Makes complete sense the way you put it. Man..sometimes I feel like I just want to do my JOB but they won't let me. That whole "well you are not the owner" vs "do I really want to own my own business" conversation creeps in my head.

This can be disheartening for me at times especially when I can see things MONTHS before they happen, they fall on deaf ears then guess what...exactly what I forecast happens.....and this is all the time. Then I have the old "I make good pay here" vs "I'll always make good pay b/c I know what the hell i'm doing" creep in my head.

I can't stand politics either as you probably already can see. LOL

When will losers stop saying "having said that"?  These punks on getbig continue to use the phrase because they feel it makes them sound intellectual.  Sound like a bunch of assholes.
Irregardless...     ;D

"Basically".....I fucking hate that.
"Na-mean"...aka... "Do you know what I mean"
"Personally" then they continue with that they were going to say.

Are you trying to say, that someone controlled you with words? As the saying goes, "Words are like bullets, you can't take them back", so do like Jay-Z, when they throw 2 you throw 4 back...spray the mofos...

I once saw this book in the library, I read a little of of it, it was called something like "Verbal Jiu Jitsu" or something like that. Showing how to arrange your sentence structure in speech and in writing to get te desired result, without the other person knowing or without offending that person. It also showed how to get info from that person by asking a question in a way (non direct?) that you got more info from that person than you would have gotten, with a direct question.
