Acronyms you use at work and in hobbies
dlish was talking about MOM in another thread, and I've been pondering this for some time now, but never got around to posting it.
What acronyms do you use for your work or play? Do you have any favorites? Give us examples of them used in sentences or communications. And before anyone else does it quoting Office Space, (FIRST!) please are you going to go ahead and have those TPS reports for us this afternoon?
I hate that we use these annoying acronyms at the office:
COB - close of business
I need that report on my desk by COB tomorrow.
LOE - level of effort
I'm going to inquire what the LOE is in order to get an idea as to what the cost should be for that enhancement.
One of my favorites, not used in my line of work but in the ER.
SOCMOB - Standing on corner minding my own business
The person was SOCMOB when he was struck by a stray bullet.
