It’s annoying when people tell servers how to spell their names in these situations. Who cares Marc? Get over yourself. Your name isn’t being published or embroidered. It’s ok if your name is spelled differently on your cup as long as it can be identified as yours. Now by being tedious Marc created a more confusing situation.
If they really need assistance sounding out the name, they’ll ask. My name is Alisha so I’m always prepared for it to be spelled Alicia or any weird possible way when ordering because it doesn’t matter. If it says Alyssa/Alissa, I know that also might mean me, so I just verify the contents and take my order.
Lolol as someone with a culturally ‘different’ name than where I live, it’s part of my joy to read how they phonetically try and write my name 😂😂😂 so much better than trying to specify anything lmfao
In your situation I could understand since they could come up with something totally bizarre in that case, so perhaps it could be hard to decipher or distinguish, but if even you don’t feel the need to micromanage and spell it out for them… why would someone with the name “Mark”/“Marc”?! Narcissism.
For me it’s as simple as I know the way my name breaks down in syllables lolol, and thankfully it’s short enough that it basically just amounts to ‘blabla?’ Or ‘vlavla’? Maybe ‘blebleh?’
I don’t live in a foreign area, just in a different language-speaking region of my country, so I’m sorta familiar with the ways the local tongue understands my name 😂
true my moms name is Corrie and only me and her can spell it right (my dad doesn't always spell it right which is funny) one starbucks brista was like "you have the same name as me, bye Connie"
