when companies pretend to be using Agile Delivery Methodologies within their Development teams or Organisation as a whole when in fact they are not. Examples of good practices

These are all examples of "Agwashing"

- Switching to Jira to create your waterfall project plan so you can tell management you're Agile
- Insisting the supplier creates a fully defined scope of work before starting the new Agile project
- Placing value upon completing work rather than making something work

It became obvious the new CTO was "Agwashing" when he started complaining about scope change and non-delivery of Milestones

Aakashing

To "Aakash" someone is to suddenly turn on them after you've acted kind and civil to their face. But, in fact, the turn has been well planned and calculated since the beginning, and it is malicious in the utmost nature. Aakashing is a fine-tuned skill, based on how much of your target's time you can waste acting like you care. When you suddenly turn on your target, you have completely fucked them over. Have fun trying to bounce back from an Aakasher's attack.

John totally aakashed Steve the other day.

We had been friends since the 2nd grade. Suddenly when we graduated, Brian revealed he had been fucking my mom and my parents gave my room to him.

Adam Levine is aakashing Marone 5

Whale

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."

city chicken

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.

Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?
