College Resume Whore 

This is a term for a kid in high school who will do pretty much any charitable act or good deed just so it appears on his or her resume and may boost his or her chances of getting into the college of their choice. The college of their choice is usually Ivy League and the typical College Resume Whore is someone who's mother still packs their lunches and who says they can be anything they want to be - as long as they get into a top school.
To be a true College Resume Whore (or CRW) the person must be doing the volunteering and good deeds for the sole purpose of loading up their resumes so that colleges will think they are a Saint and accept them. If someone is volunteering just because they enjoy volunteering they are not CRWs, they are a classic nerd or just a genuinely good person.
College Resume Whore: YES! I've been accepted to MIT, I guess volunteering all those hours slopping food onto old people's plates at the retirement home was worth it to seal this deal!

Volunteer recruiter: OK, so this volunteer work requires you to wipe all the brown stains that the washing machines won't take out of these kid's underwear. Once you've done that you can read them stories until their parent's pick them up from daycare. The parent's should be arriving in five hours, I hope you like Dr. Seus!

College Resume Whore: Shiiit, this better get me into that Ivy League school! I will not take going to a state school, Ivy League school's just sound better, I must go there at all costs!!!

murderhobo 

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.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

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."
