Not in my world. The fastest way to never get a raise again is to type this crap in inter-company email. No one’s tried sending it to a client yet.

I have a QA manager who thinks “thx” is OK.

One of my kids started using “u” and got grounded.

It’s not laziness. It’s stupid.

Where I worked not that long ago, it was somewhat accepted.

It drives me crazy personally.

I am assuming that somewhere along the line these people were never told that it is unacceptable in the real world to use text shorthand for official business.
