Rollforward Rot 

In public accounting, engagement teams procure information from clients and create and complete workpapers based on that information. The team who initially does this gains an inherent understanding of the information because they performed the full procedures and created the workpapers. The next year and every year after, these workpapers often simply get rolled forward by updating the dates and names on them.

Over time, the team who initially completed the workpapers and gained that inherent understanding either goes to different clients or leaves the firm entirely and the new team members joining the team perform the procedures the same as previous years without actually inherently knowing why they're doing what they're doing. This inherent understanding rotting away over time due to rolling things forward year after year is called Rollforward Rot. It typically leads to long, frustrating engagements,low morale and high turnover.
Associate: Hey, I really have no idea what I'm doing with this workpaper.
Senior: It's easy, just follow the procedures at top.
Associate: Ok, by why exactly are we doing these procedures, like what exactly is going on here and why?
Senior: I'm not really sure. I asked the managers the same thing and they weren't sure either, but the last year file was done this way so it should be good.
Associate: *thinking* Damn, the rollforward rot on this engagement is terrible. Nobody actually knows why we're doing any of this. I'm doing my 2-3 years and I'm out.

Rossford. Hmm what to say. You either love it, or you hate it. With our amazing football team *cough*, and school known for it's hygenic and intelligent students *cough*, it's a wonder why some hate it...

But don't let me make Rossford sound bad, it's not all that bad :) I mean growing up in Rossford you get a great sense of family because everybody knows everybody and everything about them. Also it's a very beautiful place, there's Veteran's Park and Beach Street. I mean who wouldn't want to spend a day there? Take a wiff of the Maumee River, watch a game of underhand lob life is grand ain't it.

Or or or! You could get ice cream from that ice cream place, whatever the hell it's name is now? I mean they change it every 2 days or so it seems.

Another good thing about Rossford is the annual All Saints Festival. I would be there now, but I don't want to crush the 100 year old ponies and listen to polka music.

Anywho, if you haven't realized I was talking in a sarcastic tone, well yeah, I have been the whole time. That's what we are, a bunch of sarcastic Polish people.

Butttt, nevertheless, I will miss this little shithole when I go off to college :]

P.S.-Give a shout out to the bird man if you see him!! And! Don't forget to hate on Perrysburg!!
Girl: I loveeee Rossford!
Boy: Me toooo :) Wanna sell weed to some people?

A town located in Northwestern Ohio south of Toledo, harboring the same cultural stagnancy of its neighboring city. It borders the southern bank of the Maumee river. It contains a Colony area where fancy houses abound, and it has a healthy amount of business near 80-90. Nevertheless, Rossford is but a mere rusting shadow beneath Toledo.

Named after the combination of the town's founder's surname and his wife's surname.
Nothing is more interesting than walking into Rossford's Rec Center only to find that half the machines are broken.

Rossford, OH

Rossford, OH is a small suburb outside the shithole of Toledo, OH. Rossford is nicknamed "The Crossroads of America" by its citizens for the simple fact that I-75 and I-80/90 intersects in it and both stretch the length and width of the country. Rossford has Libbey-Owens-Ford which is best known for making automotive glass (such as Toledo is known as the Glass City). Rossford has 3 primary schools, Glenwood (where the trashy kids go), Indian Hills (the "Middle Class"), and Eagle Point (Rich kids). There is one junior high and one high school. The high school's mascot is the Bulldog and no sports team has won anything in years (Last major sport to win a league title was Football in 2003). Rossford also attempted to build a arena/ampitheater but that was put down after a big pile of dirt was brought in (nicknamed Mt. Zukowski in honor of the mayor who's failed attempt failed). Mt. Zukowski was dissassembled in early 2009. Rossford has aprox. 9 bars and you can see any of Rossford's "finest" there. Rossford is a shithole town plain and simple like Toledo.

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."
