Biff’s Commentary
Shortly after I began working at a company that spoke and wrote almost entirely in acronyms, I was sitting in a meeting and literally thought something had gone horribly wrong in my brain.

Sadly, over time I began speaking the exact same way.

I had a manager who only talked in acronyms. I just nodded until she was done and went about my business…

That’s really all you can do. There is almost never any actionable intelligence in a acronym-riddled monologue.

Haha…this could have been me too. We even had the CEO of our company to mention in his speech this week “we need to stop the acronyms”. But now we are all brainwashed and it’s too late..

Yes, Acronym-speak is one genie that does NOT like to go back into the bottle. 🙂

I’m laughing way harder than I should at this, but it really is funny. I always feel like that when talking to someone who speaks in acronyms and initialisms.

Glad you liked it. 🙂 I understand the efficiency of acronyms, but too many of them in a single sentence makes my head hurt.
