It's a verbal shortcut. Nothing wrong with that! Okay!

That's just how people do.

I smile when they do that because that exact same thought goes through my mind.

Then they enter their Personal PIN Number. It is because they are not thinking the acronumn through. They are not using an ATM, they are using an ayteeyem machine. The fact that the name once meant something to someone else is irrelevant to them
