To answer the original question, I see it happening frequently, between pilots and ground crew, pilots and ATC, pilots and cabin crew as well as among pilots themselves.

It almost seems like you have to have English as a second language - or at least not be monolingual in English - to understand the implications of using too much jargon, speaking too fast etc. Often it leads to the native English speaker thinking that the non-native speaker is being rude when in fact he/she probably didn't understand what was being said in the first place.
