"Makes you feel like character"

Yes, this movie about a billionaire with severe mental issues who lost both of his parents makes me feel like I lost my parents too.

My current bugbear is "guesswork," although in my case this is in the context of the marketing bumf that my vendors and manufacturers slather their products in.

Apparently in the corporate world, the only purpose of guesswork is to "take it out of" things. Take the guesswork out of this, take the guesswork out of that. It seems at this point you are guaranteed that any time "guesswork" appears in a sentence it's going to be preceeded or followed by it being taken out of something, as surely as U always follows Q.

Once you notice the pattern (it doesn't take you long if you're sitting in my seat) the lack of originality becomes deeply irritating.

Probably ' servant leadership'.

I know we're going through some growing pains, continuing our commitment to efficiency and accountability.

I don't have a problem with the words - I have a problem with them getting appropriated and destroyed by corporates.
