Laughing all the Way to Work

Coming from a legal background, we were always taught if you are using an acronym or initialism in writing, on the first use you should spell it out and then put the acronym in brackets, which makes a lot of sense and saves a lot of head scratching and searching the document to figure out what the person is referring to. Excellent material!

With references like these how can I lose? As a matter of fact one of the girls who worked with us at the time when she read this post e-mailed me to laugh about it again :) I will check out the links you have given me. I am on holidays right now, but am always interested in what others are doing. Thanks for commenting.

I dont mind being referred to as someones assistant. My all-time favourite however is colleague. My current boss always refers to me as his colleague, both to those within our company and to external contacts when referring them to me. I tend to use the term boss when I refer to my employer.
