I get annoyed by thoughtless and uncreative use of certain overused terms/statements in corporate settings. Below are some that are so annoying, they distract me from the conversation. What are some that annoy you?

• Peel back the layers of an onion
• Incentivize
• Let's table that so we can circle back to it later
• We'll out that on the backburner
• Let's not reinvent the wheel
• They just started a new project, so their plate's full and might not have the bandwidth for an additional something else.
• Grab the low-hanging fruit
• That's a game changer
• The ball's in their court. If you don't hear from them soon, send them an email to touch base.
• I sent it up the food chain, so it's out of my hands.
• Let's give it 110%
• There are lots of moving parts
• We need to have an aha moment
• At the end of the day, what matters are the key takeaways
• Let's engage in the best practices
• They're working on it as we speak
• It's a controversial approach, so we might get some flak for that.
• So-and-so is not a people person
