Good quiz, but try being more flexible with your answers. For example, "jail," "addiction," and "dead" should all be acceptable.

I would've gotten the three I missed with more flexible answers. you should accept bathroom/restroom, addiction and dead as alternate answers

you should also accept "firing/fired" for downsizing and "trash/garbage collector" for sanitation engineer.

i think urinate should be the only acceptable answer for powder my nose. Bathroom and restroom are both euphimisms themselves.

Actually, laying off and firing are two different things. But layoff should be acceptable for that clue.

wow you need to accept way more things. Jail for prison, bathroom for going to the bathroom, addicted/drug addict for drug addiction

I agree with g1g2, you should accept garbage/trash collector for sanitation engineer, as that is more commonly associated with that euphemism, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanitary_engineering.
