Not my name, wench!
10.26.09 (10:19 am)   [edit]

A coworker of mine introduced me to someone that was going to be working in our office for 3 months...only she kept using the wrong name. I thought about correcting her, but I didn't want to embarrass her.

I didn't seem so bothered that she got my name wrong because she knows who I am when we see each other.

I've been trying to find a good mineral makeup line, but I like to try before I buy. Unfortunately, the brands in the stores don't interest me, and ultimately I would like someone to teach me how to use it. Over the summer, Affera Cosmetics had a booth at one of the farmer's markets so I tried out her stuff. Since the lighting was horrible, I ended up getting the wrong shades for my face. She kindly exchanged what I had purchased, but the new colour still isn't really a good match for me.

Her prices are not cheap. And I don't think the value I got for foundation was very good. The darker colour I had purchased was good...my face wasn't shiny at the end of the day. But the colour I'm using now...it's not yellow enough, and there are large pieces of powder in the container, and it doesn't provide enough coverage Anyway, for my next credit card cycle, I'll buy some samples from another website that has gotten good reviews.

I also watched UFC for the first time on the weekend! It was a little gruesome but riveting at the same time. I would like to watch some more!!!!!!

Voldemort's tardiness really sucks. I wish he would do something about it. He was 45 minutes late for reservations he made for a group on Saturday night. He's always late!!

And the fall Vancouver rains have begun. The boots I bought last year...ones that I bought from a store that sells raingear...now leak. My feet do not stay dry in these shoes!!!

People often get my name incorrect. I'm always polite about it - but I do say "Actually, my name is..."

I have a client (the pain in the ass one) that I have corrected him numerous times that he gets my name wrong. At this point, I think I'm going to make a point and start calling him by the wrong name as well. His name is Ross. I'd love to call him "Ass" but that's too obvious. Maybe Ron? Roger? Roz?

I don't bother learning new coworkers names - most don't last 90 days, so what's the point?

I've purposely subtley called people by the wrong name when they get mine wrong! Usually it's enough for them to realise that they made a mistake!
