M.O.

I didn’t know the true meaning of M.O. up until earlier this week. I thought I had a good sense of it, as M.O. is used often in crime shows. I thought it was short for ‘motive’.

Nope. Not that.

It’s short for modus operandi, a Latin phrase, which translates to mode or style of operating.

While I was off the mark on its meaning, at least I had been using it correctly. And even while using it correctly, I did often wonder if my believed definition was correct, but I never took the time to check before.

So for the record, my M.O. during this pandemic and working from home has been to have a glass of wine after work. Not saying how big that glass of wine is. 😉
