I appreciate this is a lighthearted thread. No issue with that.
But I’d love to hear some on here (me included) being interviewed about their job and their thoughts on it.
I doubt we’d cover ourselves in glory.
Spent a few years lamenting some of my younger colleagues in meetings starting sentences with 'So,...', but have caught myself doing it quite a bit recently.

At Pompey, Cowley is a proper 'bingo' manager. 'On the grass', 'Humble', 'Best version ot ourselves', 'The group', etc...

At the end of the day, I think we've got to take it one cliché at a time.

Matt Taylor almost never used the simple word "us". It was always "ourselves."

As someone with a Scottish family background it's always nice to hear the word 'outwith' in a post-match interview.

Just one thing I picked up on Do the club supply the jumpers or did Matt leave his behind.

It's part of the managers contract.

Apparently GC is sponsored by M&S cashmere jumpers! 👕

Or 'Look' before they speak their sentence. I think it's a foreign thing, the Aussies say 'listen' or 'ah look mate' before they speak. I think it borderlines on rude.
Look is the introductory word favoured by Strines

Look, anyone who likes cricket is over exposed to the Aussie colloquialism and it can easily drop into your everyday speECH.
