I am tired of having to figure them out so i just look bored and ask the speaker to explain wth they are trying to comminicate! . Industry specific ones are especially aggravating if I am not in that world. Wriiten word? At least, initially spell out the words and enclose the acronym in parentheses so, that, I, at least understand the shortcut.

I attended a committee meeting last Saturday and acronyms for the seminary were used......i am sorry, I am not ordained so I have zero clue about the curiculum and the acronyms for the tests. Sigh.......

Just be mindful of the audience who is not in your industry.
