I have a boss who's last name is Stengle. He's a cool guy and has some pretty funny sayings that we affectionately call "Stenglisms."
Here's a couple of them that I remember him saying:
"It's like trying to nail jello to a wall"
"It's just another arrow in our quiver" - Our company name has the word "arrow" in it.
Do any of you have any more sayings like this that you've heard recently?
-
Yeah, this is a good place to share the "work related" "business related" buzz phrases.
I know I can think of more because this managing partner with the financial firm I just got hired at was big on'm.
One thing I recall is him saying, "You just gotta get out there and Carpe your Diems."

"If you fail to plan.....you're planning to fail"

Sounds like a guy that I work with. One of the wittiest and sharpest that you will ever meet. One of his best is:
"Would you believe me if I told you that I am a liar"?

Crude but to the point:
If you ain't f**kin' me or signin' my paycheck, I don't care what you think.

LOL Good one Mike. I told a variation of this to the girlfriend of a good friend of mine who was giving me a hard time and saying she didnt like my goatee(for the 3rd-4th time).
I believe I used the the phrase "squatting on it".

I had a female customer who was real southern, and when I called her I'd ask how she was doing and she would reply "I'm busier than a bee in a tar bucket" The southern slang made it priceless!

Talk of condoms in another thread reminded me that in my younger days I used to often say this;
If man were meant to wear condoms, he would have been born with a rubber di*k.
As a disclaimer: this was many years ago. Long before all the nasty things that are out there now. O0

Last summer, while I still lived in massachusetts, I was hangin out with my brother-in-law on a HOT and HUMID day.. I said "DAMMIT ITS HOTT! and Ron replied "I know man. It's hotter than fish grease!" I wasn't too sure how hot "fish grease" is, so I asked him.... He said, "I don't know, but it's pretty damn hott!" :*))
-
OH yeah, on another hot day he also said "man DJ, I'm sweatin' like Harriet Tubman in the underground railroad" :*))

"As jumpy as a virgin at a prison rodeo" I had a girlfriend that used to say that when she got nervous.

"He ain't the sharpest cheddar in the macaroni recipe"

Nervous as a long tail cat in a room full of rockin' chairs

~Don't drink in the hotel bar, that's where I do my drinking.
~I came in here and a fella asked me to have a drink. I said I don't drink. Then another fella said hear you and Joe DiMaggio aren't speaking and I said I'll take that drink.

~I don't like them fellas who drive in two runs and let in three.

~I got players with bad watches - they can't tell midnight from noon.
~It's wonderful to meet so many friends that I didn't used to like.
~Never make predictions, especially about the future.
~No baseball pitcher would be worth a darn without a catcher who could handle the hot fastball.

~Now there's three things you can do in a baseball game: You can win or you can lose or it can rain.
~Oldtimers, weekends, and airplane landings are alike. If you can walk away from them, they're successful.
~The trick is growing up without growing old.
~The trouble is not that players have sex the night before a game. It's that they stay out all night looking for it.

~They told me my services were no longer desired because they wanted to put in a youth program as an advance way of keeping the club going. I'll never make the mistake of being seventy again.
~When you are younger you get blamed for crimes you never committed and when you're older you begin to get credit for virtues you never possessed. It evens itself out.
~Without losers, where would the winners be?
~You gotta learn that if you don't get it by midnight, chances are you ain't gonna get it, and if you do, it ain't worth it.
~You have to go broke three times to learn how to make a living.
