I'll never understand why anyone would ever use their real name as a username. Why would you intentionally dox yourself?

Still wouldn't do it.

Edit: Also, using Gmail as your businesses email address is extremely unprofessional. You should be using your own domain. You can always forward it to Gmail.

Lol it's admin@[my.domain]

Pete the plasterer isn't setting up his own domain, you absolute goober. There's a lot of small businesses that are just companyname@gmail.com

When we get resumes, applicants that don’t have some variation of firstname.lastname@… as their email tend to go on the bottom of the pile.

Good, cause I would never want to work for a company that petty.

Previously you claimed that using the Gmail domain is "extremely unprofessional". However, a company that considers email addresses with real names to be more professional is "petty". 🤔

There's a lot of people here who have no idea how little the general public cares about technology.

[-] mectag@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Not everyone has the knowledge/interest/money to buy a domain and set it up with their email, let alone switch their logins to a new email.

[-] Taalnazi@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I fully agree with you.

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 11 points 3 weeks ago

Because a lot of times you specifically want people to know who you are lol.

My son at the bank with the director (the manager wasn't there) opening his bank account:

So first name, your mail is: hellfireturtleboonstox@gmail ...

Son:🥸
