People ask me all the time about the abbreviation for coordinator. Yes, really. I live this stuff. In my experience, the short form is simple, but folks mix it up with acronyms and initialisms and then it all gets spicy. I’ll keep it plain. And fun. Promise. I’ve always found that if you know the…
I get asked about the abbreviation for payment a lot. Short forms like Net 30, ACH, EFT, COD, even PIF. You see them on an invoice or a receipt and your brain just goes, “Huh?” Been there. I work with payment terms and billing codes every day, and yes—these little letters matter. They tell you…
People tell me I take rest “too seriously,” which is funny because most folks don’t take it seriously at all. In my experience, when you actually enjoy your time off, everything else gets easier—work, health, mood, even that nagging feeling behind your eyes. I’m talking simple downtime. Real leisure. A vacation if you can swing…
I spend an embarrassing amount of time thinking about short forms. Yes, the thrilling life of a language nerd who also loves job titles. If you’ve ever stared at “Coord.” in an email and wondered if it meant “coordinator” or a code from a spy movie, you’re my people. Today I’m talking about the coordinator…
I’ve spent more than ten years swimming in letters. A to Z, but mostly K, P, I, O, K, R. You know the drill. People keep asking me about the abbreviation for leadership, like there’s a single magic short form that sums up vision, values, strategy, communication, coaching, and all that messy human stuff. In…
I’ve spent over a decade in the legal trenches, and I still hear people ask, “What do attornies even do?” Yes, I see the spelling. Relax. In my world, folks also call us lawyers, attorneys, counsel, or the person you text in panic when a contract looks weird. I’ve drafted agreements, argued motions, sat through…
Let me say this first. I’ve been doing this “trainning” thing for a long time. Yes, I see the typo. No, I’m not fixing it. Long story. In my world, people call it training, coaching, upskilling, onboarding, skill-building, whatever helps the budget get approved. I care about one thing: do people actually learn? Do they…
I’ve spent more than ten years wrangling language for a living—emails, apps, policy pages, the occasional passive-aggressive sticky note—and I keep tripping over the same thing: when a shorthand is actually understood. That’s what I mean when I say received abbreviation. Not fancy, just received. As in, people actually get it. In my experience, an…
I’ve spent more than ten years knee-deep in receipts, invoices, and bank rails, and somehow I still get texts from friends that say, “Hey, what does this payment abbreviation mean?” So yes, I’m that person. The one who reads the fine print on bills and gets weirdly excited about ACH, EFT, wire transfer notes, POS…
I’ve watched elon musk break things, build things, and tweet things for over a decade. In my experience, that is the normal order. Break. Build. Tweet. Then repeat. When people ask me why I study this guy, I tell them it’s simple: rockets, electric cars, Mars plans, memes, and way too much espresso. Tesla, SpaceX,…
