Yes, I tried this debate some time ago. Most people just couldn't care less about speaking properly.
My boss says "or we do this, or we do that". It aggravates the shit out of me that he never uses the word either. He's french, so he's got a valid excuse, but as a manager you should know the language spoken in your office.
Another manager in our office can't say distributor. She always says "distribrutor" and she's been the distributions sales manager for like 5 years. Of course, she also says "supposably", so it's not all that much of a surprise.
