Denae? Who?

Yesterday I had a older woman on the phone at work. The first part of our approx. 20 minute conversation was her trying to figure out what my name was.

Me: [Instert company greeting here.] "This is Jenae."

Customer: "Hello Denae, this is [so and so] I have a few questions."

Me: "Ok how can I help you?"

Customer: "Is it... is it Denae?"

Me: "No it's Jenae."

Customer: "Denae, with a D as in Dog?"

Me: "No Jenae as in-"

Customer: "OH J as in Janet!"

Me: "Uhm, yes."

Customer: "Ok Jenae!"

This was the last time in those twenty minutes she pronounced it right. After that she went back to calling me Denae.

And she was a name user. You know the type.

Every time she asked a question she was like, "So, Denae, say I needed to..."

"Ok Denae, if I did this..."

"Thanks so much Denae..."

Like... why waste all that time trying to figure out how my name is pronounced if you just decide to call me by a different name?

People frustrate me. 

On a side note, my co worker loved it. She was dying listening to my phone conversation.
