      I don’t think you were quite grasping the scope the McDonald’s operates at. That’s only a couple hundred per location, and fast food restaurants tend to have extremely high turnover, so that’s definitely not an unrealistic number.

      ETA? Estimated Time of Arrival?

      One of us doesn’t know what that stands for. I feel like the time my grandpa died, and mom sent me an email telling me “We’re going to the funeral this Friday to pay respects to grandpa. LOL!”

      I was quite confused. Turns out she grew up with “Lots Of Love”. For a second she seemed like she turned into an absolute psychopath, for like…no reason.

        ETA? Estimated Time of Arrival?

        In this context, it means “Edited To Add”. I do wish they abbreviated it some other way, since “Estimated Time of Arrival” is a much more common meaning. I would accept “E2A” or something stupid, as long as it was more unique. Alternatively, they could just use “Edit:”.

        Edit: added link.
