when someone calls you by a different name...lol

[dj c-los]

there's this co-worker who's an old man. he's about 43 yrs old. everytime i pass him down the hall he calls me Joe. "good morning joe..." my real name is Carlos. i wanna break the news but i get a kick out of it. this has been going on for about 5 months. :icon_rofl:

has this ever happened to anyone? do you just pull them to the side and fix their error. :conf44:

['Magic' Juan]

It could be worse. Folks are always calling me "Jose" when they forget my name. I guess that is the default Latino name.

:lol: :rofl:

i should have nipped his error in the bud a long time ago.

[TAB.]

Correcting them still may not fix it. Sometimes it's just a name they've associated with your face. They just get more embarrassed when they realize they still do it, and know better.

And "Maria" is the default latina name. :biggrin:

Exactly.

[dj c-los]

cool thing about black guys is that you can use a default name
of "man" if you forgot their name.

"hey whats going on man...." :thumbsup:

['Magic' Juan]

My default term for folks who's names I've forgotten is just "bro."

Wuzzup, bro? Nuttin', bro.

[kaaos]

how about when some one thinks you are some one else.

i get this a lot and i don't realize that they have the wrong person for a few.

"yeah man you used to date my sister man. you name is Roger right?. still ridding taht Ninja?"

[eric justin]

It could be worse, he could be calling you chief.

I'm real bad with names and I'll admit it.

For some reason I can really relate to this thread :eek:

[panklady]

I understand...and I'm over her laughing at the Maria comment...kind of like yelling Keisha on my block. LOL

It pains me when folk want to alter, butcher, shorten my name when they think it's cute to give me a pet name based off the 6 letters my dad strung together for me. Grrrrrrrrrrr... Ask me what my nickname is...

There is one coworker who've I've never met but always answers the phone when I need him to talk to a student...and I have taken to calling him "Money"...'cause he's always 'on it'.

That's just wrong:icon_rofl:

I squash name errors quickly. I figure it saves time later.

And when did 43 get to be "old" ?

[dj c-los]

to try to remember someone name i usually repeat their name when i am first introduced to them.

*introduction*
"hey Carlos this is Brad"
"hey Brad how are you doing?"
