So let me start off the I may have brought bad pet peeve karma onto myself as my AIM name back in high school was "yewcancallmeEM". No, unfortunately I'm not kidding. At least it's better than "hotNspicey12", right? Now onto my story...
I don't know where this stems from, but I just get very annoyed when people shorten my name from Emily to Em when they barely know me. For example, every time I begin a new job, there are those couple of people who starting calling me Em after knowing me for 48 hours. Please stop.
This past week it has gotten even worse. One co-worker called me Ems. Ems. That was a first, and I wanted to projectile vomit when I heard it. I guess for me, I just assume you only shorten someone's name when you're actually friends with them. Not just whenever you feel like it.
Is it just me that has a problem with this?
