Wednesday Wonderings (Thursday edition): Loopy Letters

Acronyms. Every company has 'em. Some make sense; others are just...weird.

So what do you have, good friends? What strange acronyms make your company run?

We have JARs (job action requests) and CARs (contractor action requests), but I'm told that's fairly common. But we also have the SOW (statement of work), the OAF (order authorization form), and the DOA (delegation of authority). These amuse me immensely.

ETA: Oh, hey, I just remembered the other ridiculous thing: we have three different things called "IM" (Instructional Month, Interactive Mathematics, & Implementation Manager).
