Martyr Complex 

When someone is asked to do something on behalf of a friend, and they agree, but then act like they've made huge sacrifices and should be repaid 100 times more.
Craig: Hey Mike, since you're going to the store anyway, can you pick me up on the way? I need some groceries too.

Mike: Sure.


(2 weeks later)

Mike: Hey Craig, you owe me at least 5 dollars in gas money for taking you to the store, I'm sick of you asking for rides all the time.

Craig: What are you talking about? I've only asked you twice, plus I bought you a six pack at the store both times, helped you move last week, and set you up on two dates last month! You've got such a martyr complex.

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
