I've always hated companies that don't have employees -- they have associates. It feels very mafia-esque.

Or managers that use the word my when referring to people under him. ie: "This is my payroll person" "This is my grunt team." Um, excuse me, you don't own them or me. We all work for the same company. "Our" is much more PC to me.
