terra was down for much of the morning. Now Jen has a problem accessing X and O.

The languages to the series are 100, 101, 106,111, 127, 140 and 141.

In the philanthropic world, everything is acronyms!

If you would like to donate to a child that has ASL and needs a BMT contact your local OPO. I can look that up at OPTN. You can also contact UNOS, NBMT or NMDP. If you are interested in being a renal donor, UNOS would be your best bet. (And no, that does not mean donating your ahole boss.)

Adults who need assistance should call NFT or NTAF. But we can work with adults who have CF and need a dbl lung.

I did FCFU before the O date, but I didn't talk to the SW at UCLA. (Again, not what you're thinking!) Xplant sched 6/7/06.

And everyone in our office would know what this means:
Smith, c, n, multiv, New York, NY, XXX, 1-Jun, To Do, 7-Jun, BS

I'm always running around telling my co-workers 121!

 

It means go pound sand up your a$$!

....I was responding to Mz's posting NOT SPARKYS!

Well, I think it's safe to translate mine.

ASL is a type of leukemia.
BMT- bone marrow transplant
OPO- organ procurement organization (these are the main organ donation/allocation people)
OPTN - Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network
UNOS - United Network of Organ Sharing (who the OPOs report to)
NBMT - National Bone Marrow Transplant link
NMDP - National Marrow Donor Program
renal - kidney
NFT - National Foundation for Transplants
NTAF - National Transplant Assistance Fund
CF - Cystic Fibrosis, a disease that often creates a tar like mucus in the lungs. Most patients are diagnosed as a child, but don't need the dbl lung (double lung) transplant until they are adults.
FCFU - first contact follow up
O date - orientation date
SW - social worker
UCLA - just like is sounds, the University of California in Los Angeles. They've got a big transplant center.
Xplant sched 6/7/06- the transplant is scheduled for June 7th, 2006. This is usually only done when there is a living donor.

nobody here at work knows what LPI actually stands for! We just call it that and let it be without digging to find the answer!

Pitstop the link and warning texts to black before converting to rdo. 

Oh man! this thread is MADE for Webguy!

I think this is going to take a lot of LOA's and a POA from an Attorney to do anthing on this page!

The Gig-E is down so everything had to reroute through the two OC-48's. They put in new Junipers though! Woo Hoo! Junipers Rock!

Tragically, I know the horror of Gig-E being down. Couldn't tell you the number of OC-48's up in my day.  Want some real fun?  Check out what happens when somebody throws a bad software load on your SBC.  You get all kind of 408's and RSIP storms. I really could go through my stacks of NTPs and MOPs to really hit you up with the acronyms, but it just gets too confusing because most of them actually have multiple meanings and which one you want depends on context of the conversation. 

Please always remember and don't ever forget... be sure you get your FOC back from the ILEC in time to meet your CWD. I'd hate to have to gig you on your LINK because your MTTR on your TRS tickets is too high!!  

Well, With iConnect down, and the SCIC unavailable, everything has to be directed to the handlers at the FCO's, even w/o Claim#'s. But only SRS AOL's & WC's & CMS WC's can go to the standard FCO's, CMS AOL'S need to go to the WCLCSC or the SECLCSC. But remeber ALL CMS goes through LossConnect Before you try CI.

I'm assuming POA doesn't mean what I think it means either...

ok, i didn't understand a word of any of it, but i really like your commercial http://www.tvcommercialblog.com/vid/nextel/nextel-dance_party.mov

That is my all time favorite company commercial!  Pambo and I dance to that song every time we hear it!  Scenes similar to that happen in our office all the time!!

My second favorite commercial was the "Security Feature" one where the two guys are talking in the locker room and the one guy throws his phone at the other guy to demonstrate how we protect our customers.
