Paloning

Paloning (from the Finnish word palonen "burnt") is the act of burning out your colleagues. A worker who is paloning already exists as a burnt up husk of a worker, but frustrates their colleagues to no end, leading their colleagues to experience both physical and emotional burnout.

Piloning

Piloning is when a person is walking in a busy setting and stops dead in their tracks, no matter where they are to look at their phone, send a text, take a call. They don't move to the side, nor do they care for anyone behind them, next to them, or trying to get by. This behaviour often causes pedestrian sidewalk rage and should be avoided!
The act of piloning happens when people stop suddenly on a busy sidewalk to use their phone without any regard for people behind them, next to them or those trying to get by
