At my old job we had a system of first initial + last name, or if that was already taken then the first two characters of first name + last name, etc. A ticket came into us from an Lo[…] Li who had some concerns about being loli@bignamecompany.com. We obviously gave him an alias.
You can tell it’s fake based on the fact the signatures don’t have 3 images shilling whatever internal feel-good initiative upper management is shilling this month. Those are great for email 2 ticketing systems … sigh.
I hate my life.
Always think of Shawna Hart for the first initial last name type of aliases.
Used to work on an AS400 inventory system. First 5 letters of your last name+ first letter of your first name. New hire named Sean Moroney ended up with “morons” as his handle and they wouldn’t change it. Felt so bad for the dude lol
I fairly regularly work with someone who, in their organization’s alias scheme, was given the email address of an 80s cartoon villain. It rules so much and I doubt she’s even in on the joke.
