Nice item on BBC News about corporate gobbledygook. Well, it momentarily lifted my gloom at the prospect of everyone dying imminently from pig flu. I know two people who are about to go to Mexico and I hope they change their minds.
Anyway, my pate hate is “going forward”, especially when used in the phrase “progress this going forward” which I heard in a meeting once. Well, ducks, we can hardly progress it going backwards, can we?
As for “drilling down going forward”, it’s become a bit of a cheeky mantra (like ‘Blog My Wiki!’) so I can’t actually remember if it’s something we really heard or not. But I like to think we did.
