It's a good way of describing what Wall st has done to the economy.
Or what has happened to Iraq since George W Bush sent the military to find the weapons of mass destruction. | |

| I guess it depends on the corporate culture. It is such a competitive environment, bad language is just one more way to be eliminated.

You will not lose any promotion opportunities by using unoffensive language.
