Just being silly

[shivver]

At work, I've been doing some customer service work, answering customer inquiries and complaints, so they gave me an account in the ticketing software. I didn't want to use my real name (because users will do things like look up your name on Facebook and start sending friends requests and messages and stuff), so I had to choose a pseudonym, so now I'm Donna. At first, I selected the last name Tyler, but my husband convinced me to use Smith instead. ;)

It makes me giggle every time I sign "Donna" at the end of a response. Sadly, I can't write to customers in Donna's voice ("Oi, next time, don't click that button, dumbo!"), but at least the name brings a bit of fun to my job.

Anything to bring some fun into work! Donna Smith... I'm loving it! Good for your husband, that was truly inspired.

Awesome!

Oh, I think it more often than I should... ;)

Every so often I get a response back saying, "Thank you, you're great!" and I think, "Best temp in Chiswick!"

I was going to ask if anyone got it. I'm sure that really makes your day!

Nope, not yet. Not likely to, either. I work on a social game, and our audience is the wrong demographic. I'd be surprised if anyone who plays our game has even heard of DW. (Actually, I'm exaggerating. I know that one person, during one of the "tell us what you'd like us to add" surveys, asked for a TARDIS.)

Contrary to my icon, I'm thrilled that you chose such a terrific username. :)

Haha, that's funny! But real fun will come when someone, needing your support, will appear in chat and say something in the Doctor's tone. That will be fun!
I love meeting people, interested in the same things as I am, by chance :D

When I was in London, visiting Westminster Abbey, I saw a man in a Tenth Doctor's replica coat. So I went up to him and asked him if that was the Doctor's coat, and I think I made his day by recognizing it. We didn't say much more to each other, but we both left with big smiles on our faces. (I was wearing my TARDIS pendant, and I know he saw it.)

That is an awesome icon. I love it.
