From the first days as an intern at a large company I've always hated the term "resources" and how it always seemed to include people. This post provides a nice summary as to why. Sure having one word for money, time, and people might be "less words" and work really well in that easy-to-rearrange-in-your-project-plan kind of way, but it is bad and the consequences of continuing its use without recognizing that people do not want to simply simply be equated to time and money are only going to get worse.
