When You Can't Just Say, 'You Idiot!'

You can't call your boss "stupid", even if he or she really does make Dilbert's 
pointy-haired manager look like Einstein. Here are some euphemistic phrases 
that might get the message across just as well:

* "Having him show up is equal to having two good people call in sick."
* "She has two speeds: dead slow and full stop."
* "If you offered him a penny for his thoughts, you'd get change."
* "She's always late, but she makes up for it by leaving early."
* "The cheese slid off that guy's cracker years ago."
* "Lots of smart people work at this company. She isn't one of them."
* "Not only is he not the sharpest knife in the drawer he's actually a spoon."
