    Middle management that refer to themselves as 'leaders' instead of managers.

    They are two completely different roles with very exact and conflicting approaches.

    And they're not even managers.

    If your "followers" only follow you to the point the first pay cheque bounces, or to put it another way; the "inspiration" of your inspired "leadership" dries up, your not really much of a leader.

    The worst story of this crap I have, is when I was working for a company based in Ireland, but American owned. Some worthless dreg, in America decided it would be a fantastic idea, if the workers and line managers in Ireland were forced to use baseball terms, for general communication....That way the production would be like a sporting event, with all that "excellences" sport entails. We had to call the line managers "coach"...which was just about manageable......The rest of the terms, I would imagine, every school child in America would know...but in Ireland, where baseball is not even a thing....In the training session, the line manager crumpled up and admitted he had no f'ing idea what any of these phrases meant....He'd been given a list of these terms without any kind of translation, we just had to learn them.

    In a similar vein...

    "With the greatest respect...."

    Proceeds to be the very opposite of respectful, usually to the point of boorish obnoxiousness.

    There's certain truth to every stereotype. That's how they come to be in the first place.

    If someone introduced themselves as a disrupter I'd disrupt their facial features.

    Now I'd find someone who proclaims to disrupt someone's facial features over some stupid internet description much more troublesome.
