Now I've been called all sorts of different things since I came back to Singapore, but this has got to top everything.
While sitting quietly in a corner of the office trying to change the copy of one of our letters to our customers, I hear a voice behind me go, "Timothy?"
I turn around to find a UPS guy looking at me eagerly, face filled with expectation that I would respond to his call.
All he got was a blank look and a "sorry?"
His face fell and you could read it in his face that he fully expected me - full-blooded female with hair tied up in a pony tail, wearing a blouse and a skirt - to be Timothy. My response threw him off and he hesitated before he ventured, "I'm looking for Timothy?"
As I directed him to Timothy, the naturally would be male Timothy since Timothy is a male's name, he muttered, "so he's not sitting here..."
DO I LOOK LIKE A TIMOTHY?!?!
