On handing over on all really crap jobs "Good luck with it".
Luck has nothing to do with getting this load of tosh you have handed me done, really it's all down to me. Don't act like some luck fairies are coming to help me.

a few of my less fav's from my old boss would include...
'ok..battlestations everybody!'....(means, it's friday afternoon, and he just got back from a visit to the client, where he foolishly promised we would turn some piece of work around over the weekend...which means, I AM working, and HE is not)
I'll try and think of some more...

Making fun of these annoying phrases and the work culture it promotes I've said during a meeting in a sarcastic tone:
"Let's wait until the last minute and throw money at the problem."
Did not get such a great response tho.

what they say:
"Thanks for doing that"
means:
"Thanks for staying really late again and cancelling all of your plans because I couldn't make up my mind on this thing we've known was coming up for the last 2 or 3 or 11 months until literally 2 hours before it was due"

oh man i have so many....
"hey I need something real quick"
"I think it needs a drop shadow"
"oh were you going to lunch?"
"let's go get some brewskies!"i don't know if anyone else has a "new business" section in their company but these people here are trained to NOT use such words as "but" or "just" so their phrases are always very odd.
