Office talk - be polite at the workplace!

Post by Stormwatch »

Rather than: No fucking way!
You must say: I am not sure that it is feasible.

Rather than: Fuck it, idiot, that's impossible.
You must say: There are technical reasons that make this assignment unfeasible.

Rather than: I don't give a shit!
You must say: I see no reason for worries.

Rather than: What the fuck do I have to do with this shit?
You must say: I was not involved with this project from the start.

Rather than: Holy shit!
You must say: How interesting.

Rather than: Goddamnit, none of you assholes ever tells me anything here!
You must say: The company's internal communications procedure need serious improvements.

Rather than: You want me to suck your cock as well, motherfucker?
You must say: No problem, I can work at this during the weekend.

Rather than: That guy is a total moron!
You must say: He needs further training for this task.

Rather than: Fuck you!
You must say: Sorry!

Rather than: Fuck you, you faggot!
You must say: Sorry, boss!

Rather than: What a whiny song of a bitch!
You must say: He was dissatisfied with the team's achievements.

Rather than: Do it yourself, worthless slouch!
You must say: I would love to help you, but I am too busy right now.

Rather than: I only get the shittiest tasks here!
You must say: I love challenges.

Rather than: Are you having sex with the boss or what?
You must say: I'm glad to see your skills have been rewarded.

Rather than: Shove it up your ass, you illiterate moron!
You must say: It's not bad, but I have to ask you to rewrite this.

Rather than: Some idiot really fucked it up big time!
You must say: Our training program needs improvements.

Rather than: This shit is going downhill fast!
You must say: The company's productivity has fallen noticeably.

Rather than: Now it's all fucked up!
You must say: This project is not going to bring the expected results.

Rather than: I knew it wouldn't work!
You must say: Sorry, I could have told you if only I had been asked.

Rather than: Damn! Shit is going to happen again!
You must say: Despite the team's hard work, this turned out as a failed venture.

Rather than: That's a week's worth of work. It's totally unrealistic to expect one person to have it done by tomorrow, especially as I don't get paid overtime.
You must say: Yes sir, I'll do it right away.

Rather than: It's dumb to expect me to do two people's jobs at the same time. Why would you think I can do two people's jobs? I sure as hell don't get paid two peoples wages!
You must say: Yes sir, I'll do it right away.

Rather than: That's not my job! I didn't apply to do this mind-numbing menial shit and it wasn't in my job description!
You must say: Yes sir, I'll do it right away.

Rather than: A two-hour proceedure to check whether or not another employee has taken 1 second to check if a box has been ticked? Do you think I'm fucking stupid??
You must say: Yes sir, I'll do it right away.

Rather than: Fuck off and die, you fucking fuck of fuckness with added fuck!
You must say: Yes sir, I'll do it right away.
The biggest unanswered question is where is the money? [1CCS]
