Lead Foot

A person who is known for driving way too fast.

"Tony has a lead foot. It's a wonder how he's still alive, let alone legally allowed to drive. If you ever have to travel anywhere in a hurry, he's your man. Otherwise, make sure you're never in a vehicle where he's behind the wheel."

Cooking with a Lead Pan

A metaphor describing a business strategy, decision, or practice that delivers quick or impressive short-term results, but creates serious long-term problems, liabilities, or risks.

Just as using a lead pan might make food seem fine at first but slowly poisons those who eat it, “cooking with a lead pan” implies that a company or leader is pursuing results that look good now but will prove toxic over time - for the business, employees, or customers.

“Launching that product without proper testing might look good on the quarterly report, but we’re cooking with a lead pan if we ignore the long-term brand damage.”

“Cutting customer support to save costs is just cooking with a lead pan — we’ll pay for it in churn and reputation later.”
