Shake me up Judy Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I think Derek used a fairly well-known abbreviation but I agree with Piebaps point. Too many posters use smart-ass acronyms and technical or professional jargon/bullshit to make themselves sound clever. I avoid it wherever possible and tend not to stick with threads where I've no idea what the language means. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus a lifetime career in anything dies hard, even if it's just down to the use of acronyms? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non-Believer Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 We must be pushing 40 RTIs up there now since the last lockdown restriction was lifted? It was 30 in six months a couple of months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the roles within the police are abbreviated? Years ago I was having a VAT or tax inspection at work and the bloke spoke in abbreviations. When he asked where one report was I told him it was ITD (in that drawer). He spoke fairly normally after that. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
