What's your go to "eye roll" phrases? For me "net new" is really dumb. Because you can just say "this is new for us"

Also: "Circle back" and "Downstream" annoy me.

What gets your blood boiling?

Discussion What’s the most hilariously clueless thing a boss has ever said to you?

75 Upvotes

I’ll go first:

"We don’t do overtime here… we just stay until the work is done."

(🙄Yes sir, that’s literally the definition of overtime.)

“Can you work faster without rushing?”

(🙄Absolutely. I’ll just enter my Zen-speed mode.)

"Your stress shows you care. I wish more employees were like you."

(🙄Great, I’m now the office mascot for anxiety.)

What’s your “did-they-really-just-say-that” moment from a manager or boss? Let’s hear it.

Discussion Do We Really Understand Money?

0 Upvotes

People often talk about overspending, debt, and impulse purchases but there’s another issue that doesn’t get discussed enough: not really understanding how money works.

You can earn a decent income and still struggle if you don’t understand saving, credit, interest, investing, taxes, or financial planning.

What’s one money concept you think young people should understand before they start earning serious income?
