My inbox has been swamped since Jeopardy but it turns out my email address is similar to a guy in Ireland and a LOT of the mail is updates on this situation.
Hold up. I have also gotten emails about warehouse problems that were meant for a different person with the same name. The sim is showing its seams again.
Oh, you think being the all-time Jeopardy champion means all of a sudden you *aren't* responsible for warehouse problems in Ireland? I'd argue you're uniquely qualified to address the pallet damage head-on.
Every day I'm reminded that choosing (firstInitial)(lastInitial)(commonSurname)@gmail.com is a great way to see all kinds of email meant for people who are not you.
There's a guy in Canada with the same name as me, and he gives everyone MY email address when he doesn't want the spam. So I keep getting emails from Staples Canada, and a whole bunch of gaming sites, and...well, let's just say he's into some interesting adult activities.
I have a name doppelganger and have been getting her email for years. She is used to a much more lavish lifestyle than me, and I'm hoping someday it will trickle down to me!
That’s not as bad as my address (personal account) has been used for YEARS as the source to go to for problems on @IMDb. I must get hundreds per day and I don’t have time to answer. Ha, I can’t even tell them because it comes back to me! 🤷♀️
