...why is it that people absolutely insist on shortening your name when you are CAREFULLY signing your emails back to them with your full name? I finally just added a parenthetical (I go by Stephanie, not Steph, thanks) after my signature today, after firmly tamping down the impulse to just shorten my correspondent's name, which I decided was probably going to be more obnoxious than a note like that.
There are only a few people I don't mind shortening my name, my mother and grandparents included,* and my coworkers are none of them.
* Mostly because I fought a losing war over that for twenty years.
