UPS Guy: *rings doorbell*
Me: “Hi. Thanks” *takes electronic thingamajig and starts to sign it*
UPS Guy: “Last name?”
Me: “Sample.”
UPS Guy: “Wow! *laughs* I’m sorry. Ha. I thought they were sending you a sample!” *big smile*
I’m sorry, UPS Guy, but laughing at my last name doesn’t endear me to you, nor does it make me want to smile back.

haha, at least your last name is something people can pronounce. I get “hi-yet” “hoe-yet”, etc. :/
Well, at least he didn’t start talking about your daughter “Free!” AAHAHAHAHA…hahahaha….ooohhohoh… I kill myself. *big smile*
Speaking of names, your wife and I share the same name except for one of the vowels. Crazy. Maybe we’re distantly related. All the same, it’s cool to think that someone else out there answers to the same, often mispronounced, name.
