RANDOM LINGO
Instead of Shooting Fish in a Barrel, We Should Go Out and Buy a Fishing Pole
(1). A suggestion to stop focusing on many small action items (see low-hanging fruit) and target one, major problem to resolve. The person who used this thought he was super clever.
“Look, guys, instead of shooting fish in a barrel, we should go out and buy a fishing pole and fix the underlying system issue that’s causing all of these other problems. I’m awesome, by the way.”
Fair Point
