A couple weeks ago I had to send in my Nikon camera for repair. Autofocus was completely screwed up, and the shutter would get stuck halfway every 50 or so releases. The entirety of the process, I was in the dark as to what was happening, always getting the promise that they would let me know soon. They (Nikon) are well known for not giving any updates unless they: 1. need your money to continue, 2. are done with it and send it back with zero confirmation.
I gave up even trying to figure out what was wrong, and was in the mindset that they would hopefully fix it and would tell me what went wrong when it came back. Well they tried, what came back was the most cryptic invoice in the world (and of course the camera body).

There's all sorts of acronyms and I have no idea what they fixed or didn't fix. These guys need to learn how to be more personal in how they deal with customers a bit in their invoices. Probably 1% of all customers know what these things mean. There's no glossary either.
This is like writing in assembly (fine, maybe C) as opposed to writing clear ruby code that's literal.What does RPL, CLN, CDK mean? Repair SC?Here's my guesses:RPL - Rallied People LinguineCLN - Cleared loose nomads
CDK - Chilled duck kidney
SC - Semi ConductorCan anyone point me to a page with the glossary or be able to shed some light?Thanks
