Today, I was denied a waitressing job at a local diner I have been going to for years. Due to the fact that my name is Julia. They already have a waitress there named Julie. Apparently, I would "create too much confusion." FML

Get her fired or find yourself a nickname.

Strange, perhaps that was just an excuse. After all, there are last names.

Why are you so surprised? It's a very common name, two of my friends names are Julia.

Oh, you haven't heard? That's the new standard you must fall into now days. Crazy right?

I have a feeling you won't be eating there again. Now apply for a job where there's no Julie, Julia, Julliete, Jules, or even anyone whose name starts with a J.

Two Julias? No that would cause utter chaos.

This may help...Have fun & break up the confusion by naming yourselves after a particular theme, say, potato chips, for example...Someone could be "Cheeto", another could be "Dorito", etc...However, try to avoid being called "Lay's!"
