Today, I was given a new nickname at work due to my boss always confusing me with one of my co-workers who is taller than me. Someone suggested he just call us the same name to make it simpler, and the tall one would be big and the short one little. Everyone at my job now calls me Little Dick. FML

Today, I saw a few old co-workers at the bar. They recognized me and started calling me by the nickname they had for me that I was unaware of. It appears I was known as "butch megan" by the entire office for 2 years. FML

Today, I called my coworker by the name of another coworker, and now he won’t speak to me. They’re both bald and roughly the same weight and height, so it’s not like I can easily tell them apart. FML

Today, my friends and I decided to compare dick sizes one by one. I was last and I was the smallest. I was also the only Asian amongst my friends. They now call me "the stereotype". FML

Today, I realized that since I was in elementary school, my friends, my workmates, and even my family, all call me accidentally by someone else's name instead of my actual name. I'm 30 years-old. FML

Today, at work, I bumped into what looked like a small child and said, "Sorry, little man". Turns out he actually was a little person. FML

Little Richard isn't James Brown.. Just so you know. The only reason you haven't seen them at a party together is that James Brown passed away a few years ago. They aren't the same person.

You could put on a lot of weight and be known as Fat Dick. Or stop shaving and getting haircuts and become known as Hairy Dick. You don't give me much to work with -- when your name is Richard, you're ****** when you allow your nickname to be Dick. Why didn't you go with Rich, Richie, Rick or Ricky? So many good choices -- only Dicky would be worse.

A suggestion you can sue the company for that. Not a lawyer but it's something called EEO and it's a slander to your name. the boss can be fired for that too. If you care.
