Posted by Patrick Ryan in From today’s Business Review (click here)… the phrase “it is what it is” has overstayed its welcome. I say don’t kill it without coming up with its replacement! Here’s where you come in… suggestions?
- “Tough, go deal”
- “So” or my favorite “Sooooooooo”
- “You are exactly where you are” (too close)
I like ‘it is what it is’ since it helps me to stay mentally sane in a work world where others control me and I have little control over a given situation.
