My language barrier after jumping from nursing to the IT industry (words used in conversation and their meanings)

Nice to meet you. My name
is Inoue and I joined Beyond Shikoku Office in March.
Having jumped into a completely different industry, the IT industry, with no prior experience, I was left with a lot of confusion
Conversations between employees
were so confusing that I felt like we were speaking different languages. I couldn't
communicate.

"Ohhhhhh! Speak in words I can understand!!"

I couldn't be so naive as to say something so honest, so I just smiled politely

I've only been working here for three months... I'm too embarrassed to ask anyone about this!!
But I've secretly learned about it from Google and books, and I'll introduce you to some commonly used words in the IT industry!
(I'm not allowed to express my feelings out loud) as a bonus.
I hope you'll read it without thinking, "This is just an unnecessary bonus."
