In honor of Gregorysm Day, I know that he would interject here "FINISHER!" Demanding that I'm about to finish many off here. A preacher once admonished his congregation that if they felt their toes had been stepped on after one of his messages than they probably needed their toes stepped on. I'm not a preacher and I say take it as you like it. Life is relative, and relatively I speak for myself.
I personally love my name, Regina. It's regal and totally me and I don't want to be confused for anyone else. So how do you handle a slip up? When someone mistakes you for someone else - especially someone you have no respect for or trust? Do you acknowledge the slip or leave it to let it slip again? Maybe just take into account that if someone can't get your name right or calls you by someone else's name - that's their subconscious, and they should check it for relevance. But also vying that this person is not your Mom who once in a while may call you by your sibling's name - do you want to be with someone who has someone else on the brain?
Back to gregorysm.
As I was ranting the other day about a woman who blurted out how she was a scab because she had worked a non union gig, and I had to give her my disclaimer that I manage 8x10's, as I lovingly call actors, and watched her shrink in her chair. Any way Mr. Gregory without losing a motion on his held held video game simply said "you know she's not in SAG - don't you?" To that I could only say, she's fortunate I'm not a mean girl, and she is a scab.
Ciao Y'all
