It was exactly two and half years ago I heard the word EOD for the very first time when I joined WIPRO. This corporate term has made me perplexed. I decided to Google (an elixir of life I can say) to know what it exactly means.
It just thrown me with some bunch of meanings (Acronyms/Abbreviations) out of which I picked (short listed out of my ignorance :( ) few.
Again I happened to see some clusters...
* End Of Day
* End Of Data
* End Of Discussion
* Every Other Day
* Entry On Duty
* Entering Office Date and so on…
Having some more in mind whether if it would fall under this relevant category :roll: , I decided to get it confirmed from my collogue asking, “Does he mean to say, end of the day ???” (As though I am aware it ;) )
I heard the reply “S” which made me feel happy (Yeppyyy Iam rite :lol: )
In the same way I came across the term LOC. It again stands for
* Line Of Code
* Lines Of Credit
* Line Of Control
* Level Of Care
* Logic Of Constraints
* Loop On-line Control
* Letter Of Conditions
* Local Operator Console
* Line Of Communication and so on…
It really made me blink where and when to use :roll:
The list does not end with this, which really made me to question, why all these necessary ?Does they really consume much time when it has been used in full form orDo they really save time when it is abbreviated ???
Eventually Abbreviations/Acronyms share us some semantic and phonetic meaning which should not be a confused one.
Do you have any such experience ???
