Quoth BeckySunshine View PostSo do I, sometimes, so I have an alternate nametag that says Vanessa.

Quoth Irving Patrick Freleigh View PostAnd I hate being called by name by people I don't know.
And to those folks who do NOT want to be called "sir" or "ma'am": getting angry or upset about a practice that's common everywhere at any business makes no sense. Wear a nametag or preface any conversation with "I prefer to be called X."Be a winner today: Pick a fight with a 4 year old.

When I worked at that craft/fabric store, I often looked at people's names on the checks or credit cards to call them by name. Of course, thanks to my upbringing it was always, "here's your card, Ms. SoandSo," never: "have a nice day, Laura." *shudder* My grandmother would have risen from her grave to smack me, if I'd been that forward.
It was also kind of game, 'can I pronounce this name?' My favorite was the Slavic one with one vowel, if you count the 'y'.I'm sorry, the person to whom you were speaking has been replaced by a recording. Please leave your message at the sound of the beep.
