attrit

The verb form of attrition. When someone leaves a group or company, he will "attrit" from that group.

We can't fire that group of managers even though they're dead weight. We just have to wait for them to attrit.

no bullshit attitude 

A "no bullshit attitude" is an amazing thing to receive from someone who knows what they are doing or talking about, isn't willing to listen to whining or a bad attitude, and calls you out on your mistakes so you can improve on them.

And they expect you to know not to take anything they say personally, because they don't mean to. They don't know "who you are" anyways, so why should you be offended, and why should either of you care?

It also means they don't want to hear about your "style", If you're working for them, they've been there for longer than you, have earned their stripes, and simply just know better.

A "no bullshit attitude" isn't an asshole boss though. There are three-strike rules. They take the charge and pick you up when shit is hitting the fan. They give you responsibilities which are reasonable. They will however call you out and not disguise their lack of patience when they see irresponsibility, laziness or carelessness.

I wonder how this guy even got the job. He acts surprised every time he's called out when he fails to perform a responsibility he agreed to when he read the job description. Clearly he can't handle our no bullshit attitude.

not with that attitude 

A sharp and witty comeback suitable for any situation when you hear someone doubting themselves. Was once used exclusively by the likes of parents, teachers, and coaches as a means of inspiration, but has now been introduced into peer to peer situations as a way of mocking one anothers' piss-poor attitudes.

Jerry: Man, I will never be able to find a good job!

Paul: Not with that attitude, you won't!

Lisa: I'll never get John to give me a Las Vegas Chainsaw!

Jennifer: Not with that attitude!

cast-attrition thriller 

A film sub-genre in which the characters are picked off one by one, often by a masked killer or malignant force. Salient examples: Friday the 13th (Jason); Final Destination (Death); Sunshine (the Sun).

Coined by Tasha Robinson of the AV Club to describe Danny Boyle's film "Sunshine"(2007).

Originating quote, from the review of "Sunshine"(2007) -
In many ways, Sunshine is a been-there-done-that cast-attrition thriller: Alien with an exterior monster instead of an interior one, Event Horizon with better effects and less gore, Pitch Black with the contrast turned way up. The cast members make wry jokes about getting eliminated one at a time, horror-movie style, but they still follow all the horror-movie procedures, even duly splitting up in a dangerous, unknown situation. It's like they've gracefully accepted that they're just hitting a series of predestined, genre-mandated marks. - Tasha Robinson, Onion A.V. Club

DMV Attitude

The attitude someone gives when things don't go their way. When you talk to them you feel like you're talking to a disgruntled employee at the DMV.

This could be a one time thing but normally reoccurs with the same person around a certain time of day, every day or just when you talk to them.

I wouldn't talk to her today. She's got a DMV attitude.
