What does POS mean to you?

Wanted to get perspective here....what does POS mean to you if you see it written. Does your answer change if you work in Sales???

 

Depends on where I'm at and who I'm talking to.

 

Piece of sushi!!!!

 

We use POP when refering to sales (purchace).

 

In the collateral recovery biz POS 99.99% of the time means Piece of XXXXX. Adam Sandler even wrote a song about it!

 

What crusty said. But I have heard POS refering to the store front as well.

 

we refer to it as POP, not POS. (we print tons of POP stuff for Taget)

 

Where I am POS usually refers to the cash register, bar codes, database etc. POP is all marketing material you see in a store.

 

We only use POS at the Honda shop.

 

Yeah, that's usually what I call Hondas too.

 

When I worked at IBM, my title was POS Admin

 

My prior job was developing POS software. The suits called it Point of Sales, but POS meant something else to the rest of us.

 

means both to me...I'm in retail...

 

Uhuh uhuh...yup..pretty much confirmed it. Funny Italians...

 

in my line of work, i use both phrases in one. i hate working on the pieces of shiat point of sales equipment. mainly because it feels degrading after working on servers and large mainframes for 8 years.

 

Why do you ask? That Ivan guy's not trying to act like he didn't call the new Suzuki (he'll sell you for MSRP) a piece of shit is he?

 

...oops...

I shouldn't be saying that until your 30 day return period is over...he he he...

(nice to hear that it's getting some use:up: stay positive with her...it helps!)

 

and I didn't read it that way until your post. I meant that as "I understand them both independently..."
