Cynical Observation from the Office
"Can-do attitude" is a phrase only used by people who don't have to "do," i.e., management. It seems to only be used in situations when the "do" is about to get bigger, such as a task becoming more complicated purely for reasons of reporting and documentation (a purely hypothetical example, wink wink).

Very much unrelated to your post, but: Nice new layout!
Yeah, funny how 'do' quickly turns into 'doo-doo' when management or HR get involve.
Amen, brother. "Can-do" is especially vile in conjunction with an inability by management to say "no" to the customer.
And I too like your new layout.
