Long ago I was told 'mainframe' people need to learn the business lingo. In my current role I no longer apply PTFs to the system, I apply patches. just the same lingo as the server people. PTFs cause a glazed look on auditors eyes in some shops, but they know what patches are.
In the Navy I was an 'Operations Specialist', fancy title for Radar Operator on a computer based system. We were using a track ball in 1974!
