Default How old are you?

OK, I'm no spring chicken and much is and has changed since I started this business.

I am getting more requests for inspections through the Internet and tm (text message).

One thing that I'm noticing from clients is the use of acronyms in their messages or information.

In order to attempt to keep up with the times I have found this a useful tool in deciphering some of the messages. Hope others find this useful. I'll QFT!

Thanks Barry,
now I know what you guys meant for the past three years.
This list will be handy, but I do not see QFT, so what does that mean?

I'm older than my teeth and just as old as my tongue.
