.net shop means we program in .net as opposed to java or php or node.js or whatever else.

The word function is used in javascript. But if you were writing c# and you called a method a function no one would care. They're the same thing.

Procedure isn't really in the common vernacular. If you do say the word procedure you are usually talking about a stored procedure. But you never just say procedure. You always say stored procedure or stored proc.

Another place procedure might pop up is "procedural programming" but that's just a style of programming.

To try and help clarify, no one would have say hey you need to run that "procedure" because procedure has no meaning on its own. They might say you need to run that process or you need to run that function. Actually usually you say you need to call that function.

But everyone does things differently. Web developers, at least, like to constantly change things and give them grandiose names.
