  • In the US Military one common term was FIGMO, politely it meant, “Forget It, Got My Orders” Another term was dioro meaning date Eligible for Return from Overseas, the date when you would leave to go home. Are there any internet resources to find trench art? I like these pretty, colorful, count of days (and a wake up), but I digress.

    A term I’ve heard in the Pacific Northwest is “dundy” (done-dee?) not sure of the spelling, I’ve never seen it in print. Is “I am sick and tired of this” means you are completed, ready to go home. In Hawaii, you’ll often hear “All pau now” or “pau hana” which generally means “we’re done doing whatever it is we were doing, let’s go home.”

    In Malay, you will hear: ” udah hyv? In Haidanese you might hear: “Ho mei?”
