My native language is not English and saying “sequel” in this language is extremely forced and just not the norm. This bleeds over into English for me.
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.

Same, but I’m willing to team up with them against people who call it squeal.
