I am irritated at myself for being irritated by this but doing nothing about it.
I registered on QVC to buy a single item as a gift.
I get it - you have to register, fine. I can always cancel my registration, but I may as well keep it in case there is something else at some point I would like to buy.

Now the chap I registered with was pleasant enough.
But obviously hard of hearing or of understanding.
He registered my first name as Shery.
What? That's not even a name!
I have a clear speaking voice. I do not gabble on the phone. I have worked in a call-centre, I leave pauses for people to type and/ or make noises to indicate I can continue.

Shery?
Idiot.

Anyway, months later I get emails addressed to Shery.
And every time I do it irritates me.

I refer you to the line in italics above.
Sigh.
