WAH

Acronyms seem to be the words of today. I've always been more comfortable with "real" words, and yet... I'm working at an acronym-happy company. People are constantly throwing combinations of letters around as words. In fact, it seems to be the language of the company. I suppose I need to treat these short combinations of letters as just another puzzle to solve.

Today's revelation? I received an email from a colleague on the other side of the ocean. The subject was a crisp "WAH tomorrow". What? WAH?

Oh no! I looked at the email, shrugged, and moved on with the task at hand. Just a few minutes later I looked back and thought, WAH? Working at home! Is it a good sign or a bad one that the acronyms are sneaking in to my brain?
