People with odd names
« on: March 25, 2008, 03:07:10 PM »
We need to reinsure our house (obviously evil:) and we called a specialist brokers earlier."Ah you need to speak to Tracey," they said.Confidence was not inspired.

I called back. "Is Tracey there?" "Speaking," said a man with a baritone voice.

WTF is that all about that?

Oddly we share the same surname too! rubschin:

There was a piece in the paper today about unusal names and how they can influence other peoples perceptions of them.

Tracey isn't an odd name (except in this case) but it's not one I would consider buying financial products from. Now why is that?  rubschin:

Can't find anything on the internet though.

Wimmin only have the last word in an argument because anything you say is the start of a new argument.
