I tend to be a formalist when it comes to language. It’s one of the few perks left these days to magazine editors. I try to steer clear of jargonwhether business or legal. At Corporate Counsel, we use "impact" as a noun, not a verb, and I prefer my teams to be groups of athletes who play sports together.
For some reason, though, I keep going back to the word "passionate" when it comes to work settings. We often joke about the misuse of that word here in our newsroomcan anyone be passionate about a PowerPoint presentation? Or passionate about an insurance quote?
