Are there any phrases or replies that bug you? I hate it when someone is asked how they are and instead of giving a sensible reply says,"I'm good." >:(

..and "Human Resources", "HR".

I mean, what was wrong with "Personnel"???  ::)

"Chair" instead of "chairman", and yes you can have a female chairman.
(In fact Harriet Harman was quoted today as saying "I speak to constituency chairs up and down the country ... they are fully behind Gordon Brown." Perhaps she ought to speak to people instead of furniture.  ;) ;D
