Acronyms
 

Is there a list anywhere that defines all the acronyms used in these forums... it would be alot easier for a new person to understand what is being said/answered/discussed if we knew what some of these are...

examples of the top of my head are,

TE
STL
DAC

Many of the abreviations used are standard ones used on the net...

For example:
BOL= Best of luck

The less than standard ones:

B/L = Bill of Lading
TL= Truck Load
LTL= Less than truck load
BT= Bob tail
STL=Basically a dispatcher

DAC/USIS is not really an abbreviation. It is a company that compiles background information for and from employers about potential and former employees. It is mostly used by the trucking industry but others also use it.

I"m surprised nobody has mentioned a Swift acronym yet :)

actually USIS stands for United States Investigative Services, but damned if I know what DAC stands for. I have a couple of coworkers who used to work for usis/dac so I'm asking one of them to find out.

EDIT: the mystery is solved! "Used to stand for drive a check but we dropped that and just started calling it dac."
