Acronyms have made word salad emails even more unreadable

Is this deliberate so folks don’t read them and the ones that do, don’t comprehend them?

Try reading an H&P from a doctor. They just make up their own damn acronyms. The medical field already has enough, no need for new nonsense ones.

They’re just moving the confusion to the left.

Had a C level who insisted on no acronyms. You send or present that shite and god help you. I miss her.

Those are initialisms, not acronyms BTW.

Exactly, TLIs.

What’s the point of the acronym if you’re just gonna spell out the whole phrase right next to it. Pick one or the other(“POOTO”)

Did they address what TE is?

They are defining the initialism the first time they use it, then they use the initialism going forward. Ignoring the overuse of initialisms, that’s fairly standard practice.

You would crash out in the military. I had many conversations that were nothing but acronyms, variations of the word frick, and a few conjunctions.

When I become King acronyms will be outlawed.

Did this come from a PYT?
