tangerine sufferer

1. Someone who grew up and works on a tangerine farm but is allergic to said fruit.

2. Colloquially used for anyone whose work makes them sick either psychologically or physiologically.
1. Did you see the Last Week Tonight with John Oliver piece on Warehouses? Turns out those Amazon workers are a group of tangerine sufferers.

2. Sally dreads going to work because of the harassment she gets from her coworkers despite going to her line manager and HR. The poor tangerine sufferer doesn't know what to do.

meetnik (meet + suffix nik)

a person who enjoys meetings and all sorts of administrative events and tries to attend as many of them as possible.
Being socially active is one thing, meeting for the sake of meeting is another. I try to stay away from meetniks for whom getting together is an end in itself. Meeting without meaning is worse than meaning without meeting.

self-sufficiency standard

(ECONOMICS) an alternative metric of poverty; used instead of the poverty level by some researchers.

Developed as a superior alternative to the federal poverty level to estimate the income required for families to pay for their basic needs. Computed at the county level, the SSS takes into account the costs of food, housing, health insurance, childcare, transportation, taxes, and other basic expenses, with component values varying across more than 70 different family types. SSS wages have been calculated to date for all counties in 35 states and the District of Columbia.
Usually people are not concerned by reports of the large numbers of people living below the poverty level, because they assume it just means poor people have to tighten their belts.

The self-sufficiency standard (SSS), if explained, should change this. If a person's wages are below the SSS, then she is not only not making enough to meet her current needs, she's not making enough to preserve her ability to earn what little she has.

Suffer Session

This is when a individual dedicates a period of time to where they subject themselves to the most horrendous thing to their very existence. This activity can be done by many ways including taking a deep dive into a cursed Subreddit or going to the dark side of YouTube. Either way, if the end resulted in the individual being traumatized coming out of a session then they have completed a proper session.
"We told a friend about this cursed video online and he decided that he was going to use it for a Suffer Session."
