OP My brother subscribes to the Dilbert Newsletter, and I often find it highly amusing. Here's a sample from the latest issue:
Boss and Cow-orker Quotes
-------------------------
Here are some more True Quotes from pointy-haired bosses,
cow-orkers, and family members submitted by vigilant DNRC
members:
"It's good to get a taste of someone else's moccasins!"
"It's a mute point."
"This is for your FYI..."
"We definitely don't want to nail ourselves into a corner."
"I'm not the brightest bean in the hole."
"I want quality, not quantity; but lots of it."
In one five-minute exchange, a co-worker who thinks he ought
to be my boss said, "supposubly," "expecially," "irregardless,"
"that doesn't jive," and my personal favorite,
"We have to start a brass roots movement." This was all in
the context of explaining why he deserved more management
authority.
I was once told by a co-worker, "Don't look for a gift in the
horse's mouth." This was the same person who couldn't
understand why a pot would call the "cattle" black.
There also hilarious tales of "Induhviduals" in each issue. If you want to subscribe, enter your e-mail address at
