Het eten is klaar 

Een informeel Nederlands slang-uitdrukking die aangeeft dat iemand mentaal afhaakt, meestal in de middag/namiddag, wanneer de energie en concentratie dalen. Het verwijst naar een staat van "aftakelen" – alsof je brein in een soort after-lunch coma zit en je dingen doet die je normaal gesproken niet zou doen (domme grappen maken, fouten maken op werk, of gewoon compleet nutteloze dingen uitproberen).

An informal Dutch slang expression indicating that someone is mentally winding down, usually in the afternoon/afternoon, when energy and concentration drop. It refers to a state of “attrition” - as if your brain is in a kind of after-lunch coma and you're doing things you wouldn't normally do (making silly jokes, making mistakes at work, or just trying out completely useless things).

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."
