Swearing at work
Dear Employees:
It has been brought to management's attention that some individuals
throughout the company have been using foul language during the
course of normal conversation with their co-workers. Due
to complaints received from some employees who may be easily offended,
this type of language will no longer be tolerated. We do,
however, realize the critical importance of being able to accurately
express your feelings when communicating with co-workers. Therefore,
a list of "TRY SAYING" new phrases has been provided
so that proper exchange of ideas and information can continue in
an effective manner.
TRY SAYING "I think you could use more training," INSTEAD
OF "You don't know what the f*** you're doing."
TRY SAYING "She's an aggressive go-getter," INSTEAD
OF "She's
a ball-busting b****."
TRY SAYING "Perhaps I can work
late," INSTEAD OF "And
when the f... do you expect me to do this?"
TRY SAYING "I'm certain that isn't feasible," INSTEAD
OF "No f****** way."
TRY SAYING "Really?" INSTEAD OF "You've got to be
s***ing me!"
TRY SAYING "Perhaps you should check with...," INSTEAD OF "Tell
someone who gives a s***."
TRY SAYING "I wasn't involved in the project," INSTEAD OF "It's
not my f***** problem."
TRY SAYING "That's interesting," INSTEAD OF "What
the f***?"
TRY SAYING "I'm not sure this can be implemented," INSTEAD
OF "This
s*** won't work."
TRY SAYING "I'll try to schedule that" INSTEAD OF "Why the h***
didn't you tell me sooner?"
TRY SAYING "He's not familiar with the issues" INSTEAD
OF "He's
got his head up his a**."
TRY SAYING "Excuse me, sir?" INSTEAD OF "Eat s*** and die."
TRY SAYING "So, you weren't happy with it?" INSTEAD OF "Kiss
my a**."
TRY SAYING "I'm a bit overloaded at the moment" INSTEAD
OF "F*** it, I'm on salary."
TRY SAYING "I don't
think you understand" INSTEAD OF "Shove
it up your a**."
TRY SAYING "I love a challenge" INSTEAD OF "This job sucks."
TRY SAYING "You want me to take care of that?" INSTEAD OF "Who
the h*** died and made you boss?"
TRY SAYING "He's somewhat insensitive" INSTEAD OF "He's a pr***."
Thank You,
