Nowadays mouseplay means to take a breather from work and to escape your boss it comes from the popular expression "when the cat's is away, the mice will play."

Mouseplay stems from the original usage by Shakespeare in 'Henry the Fifth,' in 1599 - "Playing the mouse in absence of the cat" (Act 1, Scene 2, Page 6, line 195). Older versions include the Latin proverb - "Dum felis dormit, mus gaudet et exsi litantro" – 'when the cat sleep, the mouse rejoices and exits the hole' and the French version - "Ou chat na rat regne" -

'Where there is no cat, the rat is king'

Verb - I was mouseplaying today...meaning I "fake worked" and took some personal time

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."
