Not enough of the former, too many of the latter.

Royal Mail (RM) is full of 'abbreviation-speak' ... it is amusing to hear managers speak this 'foreign' language hoping and praying that no-one actually challenges them on what they actually mean! :crazy:

It would take a lifetime to produce a book detailing each and every abbreviation that is used throughout the postal industry.

Test your LM and/or DOM at a WTLL about the abbreviations they keep firing at posties in support of bullying tactics to get the effing lapsing done! :wink:
