To sound instantly smarter at work, avoid the use of “weed/slang” words such as:
1. Awesome -Inventing a new cure for a disease is awesome because it’s awe inspiring. My Louis Vuitton bag is not AWESOME – elegant & beautiful yes.
2. Like – unless you want to sound 12 years old stop saying “It’s not, like, very professional of you. Your boss can, like, get mad and fire you.”
3. Abbreviations - “Love my new frenemie, Brenda, she’s totes adorbz! We had the most EPIC cappuccino at the canteen.”
Amazeballs, deets, YOLO, LOL, WUT!
What weed/slang words do you feel you need to delete from your vocabulary?
