Definitely for fuck's sake. Fuck is taking possession of the sake

Unless there are multiple fucks in play, in which case it is “for fucks’ sake”

Don't take my sake, it is delicious and goes with the teriyaki shrimp!

Is what you say the morning after a rowdy business dinner at Benihana

The latter, but if this is going global to lots of employees then why not go the whole hog and say 'For fucking fuck's sake' gives you a little more impact 😁

I keep saying "sake" in my head and it doesn't feel like a word anymore.

I once had a drink called For Goodness Sake. As in, sake, the Japanese beverage.

It was mid tier at best.

If you're going on Quora to get advice on how to "sound professional" then you've probably failed already

Maybe we all have it wrong and it is "For fuck's ache". As in "you are giving me a sore hole, so stop it".
