...is best in breed. Our CEO uses it almost as often as dead people in Chicago vote. I'm sure Steven Riddle's heard this one.
Usage: "Frankly, our sales culture is not best in breed."
Frankly, this seems a step up from the impersonal "human resource" given that being referred to in canine terms beats, say, a mineral deposit.

So should I give up waiting to be Employee of the Month and simply hope to be Best in Show? (Or perhaps I should just be happy that no other canine analogies come into play...)
Ruff, ruff!
At my workplace we just went live on an allegedly best in breed "solution". It's a software package. It will invariably produce a bumper crop of implementation problems. To call it a solution is positively Orwellian.
Well Gregg, it's a solution to job security, at least for the bug fixers! :-)
