People just can't get my name right

I know it's my parents' fault to be so butt itchy, having to spell my name in such an abnormal way. Abygail, instead of Abigail. BUT I MEAN IT'S OUTRIGHT OBVIOUS IT'S PRONOUNCED THE SAME WAY... NO?

I get people asking me if I act cute when I purposely spell it with a Y instead of an I. No seriously................ HOW WOULD THAT MAKE ME CUTE IN ANY WAY?

So it's been only the second week into working at RBS and the colleagues have already started to make fun of my name. Heibi, Ebi, A-pui-gail(ah-pui girl). Last one with courtesy of Tania sharing it with them. I mean no I'm cool with it cos really I don't mind. At least they get my name 80% correct.

Then yesterday, while I was out with Yj and Ting at Ion for dinner. This telemarketer from Fitness First called me up and told me that I won a free VIP pass to their gym in a lucky draw. Being a telemarketer myself at the moment I knew it was inhuman of me if I didn't spare him any sympathy and so I entertained him for awhile and later gently rejecting him for the VIP pass simply because I was really lazy to walk down to Paragon to collect it. I was already being fucking nice when I was almost at peak being irritated with his pretty obvious pinoy accent even though you could tell he was trying really hard to disguise it, and I knew he had problems pronouncing my name when he started his opening line 'Hi is this miss ____' much softer as compared to the rest of his convo.

It's ok, really.
It wasn't until he msged me 2 hours later when I didn't turn up to collect it...

'Hi Alaygain, what time would you be coming down to collect the pass? Fitness first - Justin.'

I was then convinced he was a damn loser pinoy that probably failed English starting from the age of 10 and had a hamster brain that he misspelt my name to such an extent and had no other job he could qualify for, he had no choice but to resort to building muscles just because it seemed decent enough to his family friends relatives back in his loser home village to have a job in a gym that's in Orchard.

I was so WTF I couldn't process so I showed Yj the msg and told her to reply for me I couldn't bear to look at how my name was spelt.

And she replied

'Sorry I think my body's too perfect. I don't think I'll need it already.'



MEGA LOL HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHA
Even if I would want the card I wouldn't even dare to step into Fitness First Paragon anymore HAHHAHA even when typing this I'm still laughing. I quote it word for word. That bitch Yj just threw my face into the Pacific Ocean, the sea's so big it's impossible to get it back.

Then he could still reply, 'Haha. Okay. Good for you.'

No wonder they say got muscles no brains.





Derek may be booking out tmr, so he says. Better not false hope me.
