Tabarnak
Considered a very strong profanity. It takes the place of “Oh shit!” but with the sting of saying something like the C word in public. Poetic because it’s not a bad word at all. It references the tabernacle of a church where communion is kept. It’s only hardcore because Quebec is very Catholic, more than half, and it’s considered blasphemous. Especially by older folks.
This is a good thing to say in a sales interview of any type. Don’t say you need the money, but that you are highly self motivated to perform and set high compensation goals and expectations for yourself. Then ask them if their comp plan has a bonus ceiling for high performers. It will have one of some type so then look concerned and ask “How often do you see your very top performers hitting that”?
You’re hired.
