I know this one! I work for a NATO contractor and I have been "tasked the assignment" of putting together an Acronym Dictionary and it is just growing and growing and growing...I do not think it will ever stop!

About a year ago I joined a Very Large Company and my pet peeve is not so much words as it is the acronymphomania that is so pervasive. I wish I could find a Powerpoint presentation I saw not so long ago which had one slide that was almost totally and completely acronyms. If there were ten actual words on this slide, I'd eat it.

You had to be there ....


My 2¢,
