New England Conservatory is the shit. Go to hell, Juilliard.

The Conservatory

An apolitical non-sectarian sanctuary where Hymen is offensive, but Urine is hilarious. A quiet place of rest, respite, and refuge; a smoky, ceiling-fanned haven of joviality and jocularity far removed from the hectic pace and daily drudge of life. A He-Man Woman Haters Club where wrinkled old lawyers and other professionals can drink overpriced maple-flavored bourbon, smoke expensive cigars, watch hockey games, brag (or complain) about their new hips, trade stories and golf clubs, Buck Up, turn 50 cents into a dollar, and have their income redistributed (efg). Also colloquially known as “The C” or “Bogie’s Place.” Members may be referred to as “Men of The C.”
“I’m going to The Conservatory, don’t wait up.”
“I got pimped ten straight hands at The C. Who dealt this drek?”

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."
