Phrases that drive you mad!

The current trend for shop assistants to say "See you later" as they hand you your change drives me mad. I challanged a young lad once by saying "Cool - where shall we meet?" He nearly fainted!

It gets my goat when some organisation has compromised customer safety and a spokesperson says "customer safety is our no1 priority".

Re: Phrases that drive you mad!

No wonder people tend not to speak much these days to strangers ....
Is it worth it - I ask meself !
Its like some people say - I 'would' agree with that .....
Well they 'have' haven't they ..... Why not say 'I agree with that' - still, I wont lose sleep over it, or let it ruin me day
