Mine is OOO for Out Of Office. I always misread it in my head like a ghost and it takes me a few seconds to process. It also doesn’t translate to speech—you have to say the whole thing.

I used to get a kick out of that at my super market because the brand of machine was “RealPOS” adding one more thing to poke fun at.
For years I had no idea Point of Sale was a thing, and always thought people were talking about systems they hated as pieces of shit.
Kinda like a TPS report.
I’ll get you a copy of that memo
