At work, we use this ticket system, right? Any time someone does something with the issue in question, we timestamp it, which is firstname, lastname, date-time. This is, in fact, the major way that my team communicates with the rest of the company -- though we use phones, and if you call someone, the in-system caller ID will display firstname-lastname.

So, uh.

How does this one guy keep spelling my name wrong -- not one way, but three different ways in a single ticket during back-and-forth communication, and continues to spell my name wrong with my timestamp right there? D: I sometimes end up completely skimming over something addressed to me, because that's not really my name I'm seeing there.

It's like being in elementary school again, in a way. They had a policy where you had to get an excused absence slip from the office to give to your teachers the day after you were sick, and I always had to stand like this mini not-a-hawk-maybe-a-dodo-bird? and in that annoying childish way, insist that NO, NO MY NAME IS SPELLED T-E-R-R-A NOT T-A-R-A D:

Curse you, alternate-and-more-widespread spelling! [fistshake]
