Garnished Lay-away

A garnished Lay-away is a term that describes the type of transaction where an employee is purchasing product from his or her store and has the amount for it taken out of their check, so they can take to product home/consume product before presenting payment.

The word garnished is pulled from the term "Garnished Wages" implying that money is being deducted from an employees check to pay for a debt. The term "lay-away" is exactly what you'd think. Picking up a product from a place of business and agreeing to pay for it later---- so literally picking up product from place of employment and agreeing to have the cost of the product deducted from one's paycheck.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

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."
