Thought this would be fun. Anyone have any examples from day-to-day life? Here are a few to start us off.
1. You know the names of all the candidates in a new series by about Week 2.
2. 'Sub-team', 'resume' (pronounced re-ZOO-may), 'negotiate' and 'delegate' are regularly used in casual conversation.
3. You have ever communicated with past candidates online without having had any prior connection to them.
4. You're working with someone who's annoying you, and you think, 'I honestly can't wait until we're in the boardroom.'
5. When talking about the programme or anything relating to it, you can give very specific examples from past series, that get you very odd looks. (I remember once I was at a meeting talking about elevator pitches, and I said, 'Oh yes, they did those once on The Apprentice.' Then I added, 'In Series 7.' A couple of people looked slightly scared...)
Anyone have any more?
