Why Do They Do It?
27 Answers
i was introduced to the new young star at work today, i think he's probably late 20s.
he's kind of our boss and informed us "if you have any problems you can come to myself" and then " it's will be nice getting to know yourselves"
Is this some young person way of talking? What's wrong we "me" and "you" in the sentences above?? At the very least they're both 1 fewer syllable to say each time!

Over the years I've found that nodding when the new guy spraffs then getting on with the job as usual works out fine. They do tend to flit from job to job, these bright young things. Maybe it's all just crap waiting to be actioned rather than a better way.

This has come up before on here, Beds. The "selves" business is a nonsense since they are reflexive. For some reason, they think simple "object pronouns" are ungrammatical (me, him , us etc).
Just wait until he gets to the heights of a top Treasury official who actually told a Parliamentary Committee yesterday that she was intending to....
"backload pillar three of the public framework"
It's all just obfuscation masking insecurity Beds ;o)))

It's more likely to be masking ineptitude.
Still, nothing anyone says or writes must be considered "wrong" today. People must be allowed to "express" themselves (though I thought that was something to do with milk delivery). That still applies even when they are talking utter BS.
