Again, the name game

Caller: Hello, this is ***. Who is on the line?

Me: This is Huixin (as usual, stressing the name of course)

Caller (also a fellow chinese): Who?

Me: Huixin.

Caller: Ahhh *ignores the name. Anyway,.......

!!!!!!

Is it the fact that there is an X in the name? Or the way it is spelled? What is bloody wrong with these people?!

My. Name. Is. HUIXIN.

Anyway. I have the joy of waking up at 6.30 tomorrow since I will once again be receptioning instead of MRing since one of the receptionists got robbed and is apparently on leave for a week. Hence, the dialogue above.

The lab guys reckon the piece of news is a farce. One scoffed it off while the other claimed that she only got robbed in her sleep. Ah well.

Off to sleep.

Till then.
