Are you in IT? By any chance, is that guy a Cisco expert? A friend of mine used to work with a guy that they called Obi Wan Kenobi cause of his Cisco expertise...

I work at the Circulation Desk in the library, but this guy was looking for the bookstore.

I feel the pain of some of those dudes. My name is Jaymes(Jimmy) Hendricks. People get a laugh when I call about auditions or other music related stuff. Giving my name at GC is usually pretty funny though.

I hate my parents

When I was in the Navy a few years ago, I knew a guy whose last name was Fagg. Gotta be sheer torture to wear that kinda crap on your name tag eh? You can guess why he was vehemently opposed to having his name listed in the phone book.

I work in IT and deal with techs from all over. It's at a point where I started collecting bizarre customer names for a laugh. I would love to share them but they're real names, I don't know if it'd be a good idea. OK just three. Here are REAL actual client names:
Bean Yip, Stone Wang and Johnny Yonni.

I once booked a limo for Bobby Flay's wife while at a summer job. I think the caller ID was "grillandflay" or something like that. I totally had no clue until after someone brought it up to me.
