Swearing at Work
-------------------------

To all Employees:
It has been brought to Management's attention that some individuals
throughout the company have been using foul language during the course of
normal conversation with their co-workers.

Due to complaints received from some employees who may be easily offended,
this type of language will no longer be tolerated. We do, however, realize
the critical importance of being able to accurately express your feelings
you are when communicating with co-workers. Therefore, a list of 18 new and
innovative "TRY SAYING" phrases has been provided so that proper exchange of
ideas and Information can continue to flow in an effective manner.

1) TRY SAYING: I think you could use more training.
INSTEAD OF: You don't know what the ***** you're doing.

2) TRY SAYING: She's an aggressive go-getter.
INSTEAD OF: She's a ***** *****.

3) TRY SAYING: Perhaps I can work late.
INSTEAD OF: And when the ***** do you expect me to do this?

4) TRY SAYING: I'm certain that isn't feasible.
INSTEAD OF: No ***** way.

5) TRY SAYING: Really?
INSTEAD OF: You've got to be shitting me!

6) TRY SAYING: Perhaps you should check with...
INSTEAD OF: Tell someone who gives a shit.

7) TRY SAYING: I wasn't involved in the project.
INSTEAD OF: It's not my ***** problem.

8) TRY SAYING: That's interesting.
INSTEAD OF: What the *****?

9) TRY SAYING: I'm not sure this can be implemented.
INSTEAD OF: This shit won't work.

10) TRY SAYING: I'll try to schedule that.
INSTEAD OF: Why the ***** didn't you tell me sooner?

11) TRY SAYING: He's not familiar with the issues.
INSTEAD OF: He's got his head up his ass.

12) TRY SAYING: Excuse me, sir?
INSTEAD OF: Eat shit and die.

13) TRY SAYING: So you weren't happy with it?
INSTEAD OF: Kiss my ass.

14) TRY SAYING: I'm a bit overloaded at the moment.
INSTEAD OF: ***** it, I'm on salary.

15) TRY SAYING: I don't think you understand.
INSTEAD OF: Shove it up your ass.

16) TRY SAYING: I love a challenge.
INSTEAD OF: This ***** job sucks.

17) TRY SAYING: You want me to take care of that?
INSTEAD OF: Who the ***** died and made you boss?

18) TRY SAYING: He's somewhat insensitive.
INSTEAD OF: He's a prick.

Thank You,
