Actually, professional has a real meaning for an occupation that requires a board certification. For example: beautician, embalmer, attorney, accountant, physician, etc. The term is thrown about without knowing what its real meaning is. It has joined the lexicon of roadster and other terms that are used and abused in current speak.

Another one of my favorite misused terms is momentarily. For example: We will be landing momentarily. This literally means we will be landing for only a brief period of time. The correct way to state this upcoming event would be to say: We will be landing in a moment.
