Coastal Clown 

A derogatory term referring to Coastal Cloud, a Salesforce implementation partner notorious for deceptive practices and scamming its customers. The company rebranded to "Coastal" after industry peers began mockingly calling it "Coastal Clown" due to its reputation for incompetence and fraudulent behavior, particularly targeting vulnerable clients with subpar services.
When the Salesforce project tanked, the CEO realized they'd hired a bunch of Coastal Clowns who thought "cloud" meant stuffing servers with cotton candy.

To jump around a lot, keep showing up at different places.

E.g. Never stay in one spot for long.
I.e. Business travelling. Band Touring.

Originally intended for large distances, hence "coast".
But nowadays (with more instant updating and specific geo tagging) not limited to. One might as well be showing up at different places (preferably peripherally opposite) in a city given a delimited time period.

Can be described as a more conscious type of jet lag. You are aware of your body not catching up to acclimatize to the new surroundings.
Seen on George's wall:
"Tuesday: George checked in @New York"
"Wednesday: George checked in @San Francisco"
"Friday: George checked in @Washington"

Response:
- Hehe :) travel a lot this week, George?
- Yes, I've been (feeling) a bit by coastal lately ;)

Going Coastal 

When someone from the midwest starts acting like a hipster from the east or west coast and forgets their roots, they're "going coastal".
Did you see all those food pics Bob posted to Instagram? He's going coastal.
