Name Brain Drain
(A customer reads my name tag.)
Customer: “That’s a strange name isn’t it?”
Me: “Heh.”
Customer: “How do you pronounce that? Tain-ee… Trenay? Seriously, what is that? Welsh? Irish?”
Me: “Uhm…”
Customer: “It sounds really exotic, really foreign.”
Me: “No, no, I am a trainee. Trainee isn’t my name.”
Customer: “Ohh, right. Well, thanks for the help, Train-ee!”
