I self-taught SQL on the job and was denied a promotion because I said S-Q-L instead of Sequel. The supervisor that was interviewing me for the job ended the interview early because of it. This was almost 10 years ago now and I’m still salty about it.
I will always judge people who say “sequel”

Why? It originated as literally SEQUEL (Structured English Query Language). It only changed because of a trademark conflict.
That guy REALLY likes trademarks, apparently
Same, but I’m willing to team up with them against people who call it squeal.
