The Trader Joe's Trap

A classic phrase used when an individual buys a seemingly endless assortment of fruits and vegetables from Trader Joe's, but then proceeds to eat frozen dumplings for ten days in a row once home and settled.

"Hey Frank, check out all of this fresh produce I picked up at Trader Joe's today!"
"Nice, Willis, that all looks so good. What are you planning on making for dinner tonight?"
"Well I was gonna make some stuffed mushrooms, buuutttt– I'm feeling pretty sleepy now. Probably just gonna throw some frozen dumplings in the pan."
"Sounds good Willis. Just don't get caught in The Trader Joe's Trap again. See you in ten days!"

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?
