We have all been there: a boring, wasteful meeting, lecture, or status with a supervisor. We may wait for words of encouragement, inspiration, guidance, or something to get us going; or, we may just be waiting for it to be over. Then it comes: one or more of the Business Speak phrases that are somehow part of the organizational subculture. Business Speak is a phrase so silly, so overused, or so ridiculous that it makes you wonder "How can they say that with a straight face?" This book is your guide to deciphering what is being said. It is, in essence, a translation guide for all of the B.S. This book is a tribute to the millions of you who have suffered through the misery of listening to the B.S. and just kept thinking "When is lunch?"As you read this book, you will be able to think back to the last month, week, day, or hour when you heard one of these phrases and thought how ridiculous it was. You will also wonder "why didn't I think of this book?" Well, because I did.

Overpriced!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Business Speak: The Worker's Guide To Deciphering Corporate Jargon, Slang, Verbiage, And Nonsense (Paperback)
This book is ok, but it is seriously overpriced! I can't believe my eyes when i actually got the book. It is only 40 pages with 95 phrases in all, so why charge $10 or even more? I would only pay $3 for it.
