I Learned a New Word This Week

de·fal·ca·tion :  The act or an instance of embezzling.

I'm sorry to say that I learned this word at work.  It is an ugly word.  Because of the world we live in, it probably won't be the only time I ever say this word.  This, however, will be the only time you will ever hear the words "Aundrea Hill" and "defalcation" in the same sentence.

I learned a new phrase this week! In the medical field we say : FU SOB. No, it's not what you think! It stands for Follow Up Shortness Of Breath. I'm sure that person who was involved in that defalcation will need to use this phrase.
