Hmm, I think we need to 'touch base' as your 'out of the box' thinking has been 'flagged up' and its time to 'square the circle' or face 'deferred success'

Lol, I am fluent in it....its essential in my line of work

 8-)We need a balance of blue & white collar workers, neither could exist without the other , but i've got no patience with such pretenciuos pillocks & stuck in such an environment i'd tell them to listen to themselves & shut up but i'm a self confessed gobsh*te so equally as bad in my own way. Not my area so the only two i can think of are,
    
 "Lets draw a line under this & move on"

  Any sentence or statement that involves the word "Mindset" ::)

Oh no - I am a corporate w*nker. I have used all the phrases highlighted above - this is what happens when you work with IT consultants on multi-million pound projects in education all day.  :-[
