The only reason you need to know someone’s name is to talk about them behind their back.

Excellent point, if you’re just 1 on 1 with someone you dont need their name except to talk about them with someone else.

I’m always terrible with names but they do come in handy

Hey,who’s working ____'s shift Thursday?

Who do I need to talk to in HR?

who makes the schedule?

Ask ___ if they can cover your shift.

Email ____ for me and see if they have a copy of that report.

Can you tell ___ to come see me.
