I’ve come up a way to help those who insist on substituting the irritating phrase, “No problem”, for the correct response, “You’re welcome”, when told, “Thank you.” Now I say, “Thank you. Was there a problem?” I feel so much better when the dialogue flows so smoothly. I still don’t hear, “You’re welcome,” but it doesn’t bother me nearly as much.
Where exactly is that, ‘Next Level”? And is there a level after the next level. I mean, if you hire someone who is , “Going to take us to the next level,” it’s important to how many levels are left and can she take you up, say, three levels or just the next level?
What do all these liberals who characterize those teaparty folks as racists because they do not support President Obama? Seriously, they just voted for Herman Caine in the Florida presidential straw poll. Hello? Caine is definitely not white. So does that mean the teapartiers are also insane. Those crazy astro-turf racists.
Don’t you enjoy those Fox interviews of the Wall Street demonstrators who try to explain what they object to. I am waiting for one to answer the question this way, “No problem Dude, I want to see these demonstrations take America to the next level. The goal is to silence those crazy, Herman Caine supporting, racists teapartiers.”
Is is just me or does it bother others when receptionists respond to your call with, “May I ask who is calling?” I know it is just a polite way of saying, ” He may or may not want to speak to you, depending on who you are.” But the question is really the wrong question. The receptionists should ask, “Who is calling, please?’, not, “May I ask who is calling.” I have discovered that by answering the first question accurately usually triggers the second question. Try it and see. Just answer, “Of course. Yes.”, and I am sure you will get the second question………after a long pause.
