1. The deadline was yesterday!
What a twist! Agree, no one has to work hard at night or overtime due to forgetfulness of his colleagues, or the inability to plan the timing. This behavior is not very tactfully and not professionally, but still very angry.
When working in conjunction with the other person is important to think not only about themselves but also about a fellow teammate. It is likely that he has other tasks waiting to run. That's just because of someone's carelessness, he now has to will them to throw and then finish at the last moment.

At work, they all have certain responsibilities that it is desirable to carry out in due time. Most likely, this recurring problem, which is known in advance. And an employee of either making or not. There is no third.
Imagine this situation: the interview the candidate asks the future leader of the size of the proposed salary. And that's what the man answers: "To pay you forty thousand each month? Well, I'll try, but no promises. " About what here stability and confidence in the future can be discussed.

A colleague shared his small achievement and clearly expected to get back a little praise, not derogatory tirade. Much more appropriate would be happy employee success, not trying to find a situation in some kind of trick. One could say "Congratulations!" Or "Wow, cool!" Or simply remain silent, if it is absolutely insulting.
5. I heard you
Impression of the phrase, "I heard you" is extremely contradictory. Nothing particularly wrong with it - the interlocutor understand what he said, and even answered.

One gets the feeling that the interlocutor simply wants to quickly get rid of the conversation.

14. Nothing personal, just business
This phrase is inappropriate and willfully from all but Al Capone. So if you are not the leader of a Chicago or even some kind of mafia, the degree of audacity better restrain.
