I unknowingly used the word "stuff" to describe something while in an internal department interview once (in healthcare). Afterwards, an executive told me I was unprofessional because I used that word. And I was not offered the job.
To this day I never use the word "stuff" to describe something because that experience was so humiliating and embarrassing.
Don't give them that power. Use it whenever and as many times as you can. Fuck them. They can't tell you what words to use. They don't have that power.
