'I got fed up with her': Coworker keeps getting employee's name wrong on purpose, employee claps back

Pronouncing someone's name incorrectly can be an honest mistake unless it's someone you have been working with closely five days a week for the past year.

This is someone who is actively seeking to get your name wrong under the guise of having “difficulty” with it. Furthermore, Saoirse is not that uncommon. Has this coworker even heard of Saoirse Ronan? Not only does she come across as unkind…

'I’m sorry what was your name again?': Woman gets petty after acquaintance keeps conveniently 'forgetting' her but remembering woman's husband

'I’m sorry what was your name again?': Woman gets petty after acquaintance keeps conveniently 'forgetting' her but remembering woman's husband

It's perfectly normal to forget someone's name the second or third time you run into them socially, but this lady seemed to be doing it on purpose. Not only did she always make a point about not remembering the Redditor's name, but she seemed perfectly capable of remembering OP's husband. It's the kind of social interaction that seems fishy. If this lady only saw OP with her husband, why would she always make a point of remembering the husband and treating OP like she was invisible? While I hav…

'I demanded a partial refund and they refused': Tattoo artist tattoos initials onto unsuspecting person

Tattoos are so personal to the individual getting their skin adorned. Everyone knows that tattoos last forever, but it's a hard concept to fathom until you actually get the tattoo. Depending on where you get it, you'll either 1) look at it every day, so you'd better love it! or 2) never look at it if it's on your back or legs, and you'll kind of forget you have it at times. Regardless, you do have that art work forever, and even if you can't see it, other people probably can. Along with your ha…

You have not lived until you've heard a parent telling their two-year-old named Atticus not to eat a handful of dirt. These days, you'll hear a wide variety of names on the playground, many of which are older names coming back into style again. “That's enough time on the iPad, Henrietta!" or “Ethel! We don't grab people's hair!” are common to hear with today's youngsters. Other people have been super into naming their kids after objects, like Forrest. That's a pretty name, but the problem for F…
