‘I am going to have another very uncomfortable conversation with somebody.’ A Woman’s Name Causes Her to Get an Unfortunate Email Address Every Time She Starts a New Job

This poor, poor woman…

As you probably know, a lot of companies assign email addresses to their employees that consist of their first initial followed by their last name and then the company’s info.

For example: Mike Williams might be [email protected].

Meet Samantha Hart.

Yes, if your mind is working, you realize that her username for work emails is usually… shart.

Ouch!

Samantha said, “I am filled with dread over one aspect of moving to a different job that I always face when I do this, which is having to have the tough conversation of how my name fits into a company email structure.”

She then added, “I’ve had two professional jobs so far and at every single workplace … I have received an email from HR the week before I start letting me know that my name does not exactly fit the company email structure as they would intend and would I mind if they gave me a different structure for my email. To which I always say, ‘Yeah, like yeah, I don’t want an email that says shart, yea fix it, give me something else.’”

Samantha then continued, “So now as I transition to this new role, I did investigate the email at this new company, and they do, in fact, use first initial and last name, which means I am going to have another very uncomfortable conversation with somebody.”

Just a thought…
