n. The bastardization of the English language that is used in India and other shithole countries where call-center and technical-support jobs are exported so large corporations can profit off of cheap labor. The negative effects of 'Inglish' are often magnified by the poor telephone quality in these shithole countries. Please note: The term 'shithole' is not intended to be derogatory in this definition. It is merely a classification of these nations based on the fact that most of the residents live in poverty due to the low working wage and must shit into a hole instead of on a toilet. I'm sure they are fine people, they just don't know how to speak English.
Agent: "Wat iz you moher's maden nme?"

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."
