When people talk about FOB's here they mean "Fresh Off the Boat."
A"FOB" is a foreigner (from any country) that just recently arrived to the United States. People make fun of them cause of their accents and style of clothes.

It is "Freight on Board" FOB means "Free on Board" it means once the goods pass the ships rail at the port of the seller, the buyer bears the risk off loss. Thus, if the ship goes down in transit, buyer takes the loss.

In Iraq, US soldiers live and work in Forward Operating Bases. They call these FOBs, and refer to the soldiers who always work there and never go out on missions "Fobbits".

it means free on board, but I belelive it only refers to freight being shipped on a boat. Freight shipped via air or rail should be FCA or Exworks.
