tech lead

He is the tech lead. He is the source of all initiatives in a software project. Do not question anything he says. Do as he tells you. Because he is the tech lead. There is only one tech lead, even though some people might try to claim the title for themselves.
I am a tech lead, but I surely am not THE tech lead.

Super Tech

A Super Tech is a technician that has supreme knowledge in The industrial automation and controls industry. Not to be confused with a loop shooter or even worse an electrical tech. Super techs are a rare breed typically called in on days off to fix something an engineer screwed up. They are the highest paid on the job and for good reason. If you find a pair of his used gloves put them on, you might soak up some of his excellence.
Better call in a super tech. Noone can figure out what's wrong

hermit tech

Modern technology (more specifically home computers and smart devices, audio/video chatting services, messaging services, and remote desktop apps) that allows someone to work in almost complete isolation - mostly in one's own home.
Well I guess I've been preparing for a quarantine for awhile now. With all of my hermit tech, I haven't set foot in an office for YEARS! My coworkers know I'm an email or phone call away, they just don't know exactly where I'm at - and they probably don't need to.

tech-block

The implementation of technology to prevent your phone or other digital device from performing a function.
Don't try to use your phone here.

"Why?"

It won't work. They tech-block here. They can track what you do on it.

"Might as well turn it off."

Yup.

Surgical tech

The BADASS person in the operating room that keeps the surgeon from killing you. They make sure everything needed to make the surgery run smoothly is in the room. They are the surgeon’s right hand yet they are unknown: the unsung heroes in scrubs. Sometimes they need to be a referee, carpenter, plumber, engineer, psychologist, babysitter, teacher, a hand holder, a smart ass, psychic, and a mind reader: jack of all trades, master of none.... except how to kickass and keep things running smoothly in the high stress OR.
I thought a nurse scrubbed in with the surgeon but it’s a surgical tech!
