This is nothing compared to what you will find in the DoD. You can have an entire conversation using only acronyms. What's worse is that you're understood when you do so! At my office (a Defense contractor), we have pages and pages of acronym glossaries and once, when joking about them, I had an Army Colonel once tell me that only the Army could come up with a 7 letter acronym for a car.
