Put some time on my calendar
Let’s discuss this in the next meeting
What’s the backup plan if things go south
Do we have the enough coverage?
Let’s put some ETA for each items and assign to the appropriate person.
What do you suggest?
Not sure if it is just consulting but “plus one” is a favorite of mine. It’s like all extra efforts are worth the same thing. Publish a book on automation +1. Volunteer for an after work activity +1. These are not equal but you call them the same thing...
“Sorry I was on mute”
Close second “sorry I was multitasking"
“Let’s take this offline"
This one’s a classic red flag for bad behavior in the surveillance context 😂
Someone keep me honest here but
Please go on mute if you're not speaking
I’ll take that as an action item and get back to you.
“Do you hAve the bandwith?”
Let's take a step back
Best cameo ever
Boiling the ocean.
Can also mean doing too much analysis (too much data, exhausting every possibility) when a bit of logic and reasonable assumptions can focus the activity on the most impactful subset.
“No need to boil the ocean, we can probably focus on suppliers with turnover >$10m."
It depends
And it’s cousin: “a hard maybe"

Sorry I was on mute.. there is a funny incident that I could recall here..so there was this call going on and one of the client asked some question to my manager... My manager ( I suppose she wasnt focusing on the call ) and when she realized she has been asked a question , she was like " sorry, was talking on mute..can you please repeat your question. I was wondering " can we not hear questions even when the mic is on mute "
I’ve heard this too! Haha no logic.
The “so what” it’s cheeky but sometimes it’s truly imp
