Then you try to charade what they look like, then your coworker starts going down a list of other coworkers names and you’re like “Honey, I don’t know anyone’s name, not even yours. Except of Charley from accounting, he as the same name as my nephew, he also kinda looks like him, but as a grown ass man. Then you wonder what would happen if they met, would they become friends? They don’t have much else in commun though… anyways, I don’t know who I spoke to, sorry.

I’m terrible at remembering names! I can 100% tell you what they look like, hell, I can even tell you what they bought at the store I work at…but as far as their names? Nope. It’s awkward when someone I went to high school with two decades ago comes up and says… “Heyyyyy! (My name, of course they remember MY NAME) How’s the kids”…. 👀 I’m like… “heyyyy …. you! How’s it going???” 😬meanwhile I’m mentality trying to figure out why they kinda look familiar and how the heck they know I have kids.. plural… lol. 😳
