    This post could go in ANY of the forums but I chose AUD as an example………

    Does anyone else forget what the acronym letter stands for? PUFE? TIP-PIE-ACDO? GRASPP? ALARD?

    I know the acronyms but I find myself going back and saying “okay…now what did the P stand for? Planning? Professional? Pension?……..ARGGHH!!.

    Yes…I’m getting older (I’m 48) but would enjoy hearing from others on this!!

    LOL…having spent 4 years in the Army and another 12 in telecom acronymns are a way of life. I kind of like them as when I get to the test I write them down on the paper and can use them as memory aids for simple things saving valuable hard space in my head to remember all the stupid formulas.
