Name Change?

Each time I answer the phone at work I have to go through an extensive greeting ending with telling the person on the other end of the phone my name. And when a room calls I answer the phone giving them my name.

Now we all know that phone lines can have static sometimes or the other person can sound far away, which can lead to a miss-pronunciation of my name.

So far the most common name I get called is Gretta.

WHAT?!?

Not sure how you get Gretta out of Carla but it's happened so often that I have started correcting people instead of just brushing it off to static. I know I talk fast sometimes but really? Really?

Oh for the days when I'll have a job where I can choose whether or not to answer the phone - I'm ready for a break.
