    At my old job we had a system of first initial + last name, or if that was already taken then the first two characters of first name + last name, etc. A ticket came into us from an Lo[…] Li who had some concerns about being loli@bignamecompany.com. We obviously gave him an alias.

    Always think of Shawna Hart for the first initial last name type of aliases.

    You can tell it’s fake based on the fact the signatures don’t have 3 images shilling whatever internal feel-good initiative upper management is shilling this month. Those are great for email 2 ticketing systems … sigh.

    I hate my life.

    Used to work on an AS400 inventory system. First 5 letters of your last name+ first letter of your first name. New hire named Sean Moroney ended up with “morons” as his handle and they wouldn’t change it. Felt so bad for the dude lol
