Rant: Habitual sayings that people say that you hate.
"That's not a problem".
No [expletive] it's not a problem.
Conversation I just had on the phone:
"Hi this is Sally with Eegroblatz and I was wondering how you process your GIS information for tiddly wink blam blue sky?"
-- I have no idea what you just said.
"That's not a problem. Would you know who in your organization is responsible for maps?"
-- Maps? Like where am I kind of maps? Like how do I get home type of maps?
"Uh .... blubber blubber ... uh yeah, digital"
-- What are you talking about?
"That's not a problem. So you don't process diddly fud green grass blatz gif's?"
-- Uh ... no.
"That's not a problem. Thanks for your time.
...
Well you know what, it kind of is a problem [expletive]. Because I'm sick of these types of phone calls. The problem isn't that I don't know what you are talking about, it's that you asked the dumb ass question. I swear everytime someone says "That's not a problem" I just want to say "No [expletive] it's not problem".

I hate when store clerks say "no problem" after I say thank you. No [expletive] it's "no problem" because it's your [expletive] job you slacker. How about a proper "you're welcome" instead.

When people are being interviewed, and they answer, "No, yeah I think that...". Or the reverse, "Yeah, no I will not."
Also, "job creators".

"That's fine," when I tell one of my guys I need something done. No [expletive] it's fine, I just told you to do it.

I hate people who say "impacted" when they mean "affected."
