I've decided I don't really trust anyone who uses the phrase "moving forward" instead of "in the future," especially referring to the immediate future. It seems to be the language some people use in order not to be pinned down as far as dates are concerned. It only pretends to mean anything, but sounds active. So much of businesspeak is like that.

Of course, my distrust originates with someone who used the phrase constantly, focusing on this supposed forward movement, because she did not intend to address the problems of the very recent past I kept asking her to correct.

I just now had a couple of offers to do "a possible deal together moving forward?" They're just adding words that mean nothing. Maybe they're insecure.
