Phrases that will get you fired


CBS Moneywatch has come up with five phrases that could get you fired. My favorite is “But we’ve always done it that way.”

A Pensacola list would be different—
1) “Daddy, you didn’t say I had to work an entire eight hours every day.”
2) “Yes, that makes your butt look big.”
3) “I didn’t mean to hit ‘reply all.'”
4) “Again, please tell me what’s the difference between the fax machine and the shredder.”
5) “Who said casual day means you have to wear shoes?”
