Latino clerk...mangles my name! Si, Señorita...







The way things have been going, I knew it would come to this!

Today, I was asked to produce my Driver’s License to finalize a transaction at a business establishment in Las Vegas.

The Latino employee scanned my I.D.

“Hoo-li-an,” she quizzed with a thick accent.

In spite of the fact it should have been obvious from my lily-white skin and responses in perfect English - that I am a “Julian” - she chose to take a stab at the Spanish pronunciation instead.

Is it my imagination, or do I have a sudden urge to cross the border illegally now?
