minus-squareKekahi@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoI have a fun thing. I’ll meet a new coworker. Let’s call her Sara. I learn her name after a few days and say, “Hi Sara!” when I see them in the halls. One day, I’m at the mall. This random person says, “Hi Kekahi!” And I say, “Hi… you!” It’s Sara. They were out of place! I cannot be expected to recognize someone if I see them in a place where I don’t usually see them. That’s asking too much!
