I disagree. If you’re going to say a name, say it correctly. It’s a cultural respect thing. Word to A A Ron.

So you out here rolling your r's for Alejandro instead of just calling him Alex?

In addition, she's saying Ped-dro, 2 d's. Not peh-dro.

I may not be rolling r’s but I’m damn sho not gonna call him ‘Alex’. Unless he told you to call him ‘Alex’, that’s disrespectful. That man name is Alejandro. His momma named him Alejandro, imma call him Alejandro. How you just gonna change his name to fit YOUR cultural comfort? ***** you never seen Roots???

Yeah I watched like videos too...came away with like 3 different pronunciations.

This video to me sounds more like paid dro. Others sounded like pay dro, some like peh dro. Either way, I've spent enough energy on this.

That's totally different. One is shortening a name and the other is changing the pronunciation and the nationality of the name.

Thought that was meant to be derogatory.
At least Anthony/Tony are related. Really don't mind the latter depending on our rapport.

Mispronouncing someone's name (due to regional accents) is totally different than completely changing their name.

Man...I said I was gonna leave a vapor trail.. I freaking called someone 5 minutes before leaving work and of course she had to tell me her life story. A phone call that literally should have took 70 seconds took 15 minutes.

I can already feel that I'm going to be a complete degenerate this weekend. 3 day weekend, full slate of college games on tomorrow and the girl is working every day

All my meals this week from work. All company paid lol
Except for my first day. That’s when I got that fake chicken salad from Veggie Grill. But they still paid it. No picture of it

Free lunch would save me like $800 a month
