Identity crisis

By nato - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, my boss called me Dave. Now everyone actually thinks my name is Dave. It's Nathan. I've been working there for 2 years. FML

My boss calls me Jaclyn. I'm Kathleen. I even wear a name tag. But hey, we should take advantage of it. Do bad things, blame it on Dave. When they attempt to scold you, pull out your ID. "I'm Nathan."

Say there are too many Daves and you want to be Marvin O'Gravel Balloonface.

well Noor, that's probably because the starbucks guy couldn't remember her name and decided to replace it with another arabic name. Male. Oh well,...

Odd, the Starbucks lady always writes Cheech on mine, no matter what I tell her my name is.

It's better to be incorrectly addressed than not getting identified at all.

Now do something that u will be remembered for in a good way. Then correct them when u get the praise for it.
