    There are so many! SMH, etc. I don't know half of them. I have a million of my own, too. I've always done that. Like, when I worked in sales, I'd code my call reports LVM (left voicemail), WCB (will call back), ICB (I should call back), GPO (getting purchase order), etc.

      If I know them,not bad,but people do them leaving no clue what the abbreviation(Acronym?) means so I end up googling it to find out.

        Abbreviation, or more specifically initialism. Acronyms are pronounced as words, like LASER or NATO.
        Trust is knowing someone or something well enough to have a good idea of their motivations and character, for good or for ill. People often say trust when they mean faith.

          My favorite was when someone wrote about their DH doing something. It means dear husband, but I thought it meant d*** head.

            Having been in the military, every set of initials is an acronym. Someone will find a way to make it pronounceable!!

            For example: Fleet Readiness Command Mid-Atlantic Aircraft Department---FRCMAAD, pronounced Frick-mad

                Isn't that the truth. Of course some of them are sort of funny at times. I recall when the powers that be wanted to create the Administrative Support Specialist rating and combine all the YN's, PN's, CTA's. It was supposedly going pretty good until the Admiral asked what they'd be called and the Officer doing the briefing said Administrative Support Specialist (ASS). We heard the Admiral got up and left the room as the laughter sort of took hold and the Briefing Officer realized what he'd done. The name died that day though the merger did eventually occur with the PN's and CTA's. I think the YN's also merged but not sure of that as I dealt with CTA's being a CT myself.

                  LOL!


                  YNs have thus far stayed separate. I think the Officer corps wanted to keep their own admin staff...

                          I know rumor mill has it the powers that be are thinking about separating the PN's and CTA's again. To many things the CTA's did in the security fields that the PN's were never exposed to and they were causing some serious issues because of it. Another of those evaluations of what people think they did and were expected to do versus what they actually did. Though I also heard when they did away with PARS and such it hurt them even more.

                              I understood there was a ship out of Norfolk that had that on banners and stickers before the Commanding Officer finally discovered what it meant. Was not a happy camper after that.
