Acronym Soup

I’m nearly through my first week back to work. Although I have showed up each day, it doesn’t feel like I am “working” yet. I have read through the emails, and begun the catch up reading on my project. In today’s three hour training session, the director from my department asked me if I’d be on a task force to help in initiating an upcoming project. As I sat in my fog, I agreed.

Unfortunately, as is generally the case at my company, most the training information, emails and reading are full of acronyms. Many of the acronyms that I am coming across are foreign to me. “CRDM”, “EDS”, “SGL-7”, “QIDS”…SOB, I just can’t take this.

Like alphabet soup, each spoonful is just as puzzling as the next. Oh well. The soup of the day (every day this week) is Acronym Soup. I wonder what will be on the menu for next week.
