52When I first started working at the local hospital, someone gave me a phone number and asked me to give Elizabeth Ward a call. I rang the number and asked to speak to Elizabeth Ward.
"Yes, this is Elizabeth Ward, Staff Nurse Thompson"
"No, I'm not Staff Nurse Thompson, but I do need to speak to Elizabeth Ward"
Took me a few seconds to work things out.
Then about six months later, I noticed Ursula Ward in the hospital phone directory. I spent half an hour walking around the hospital looking for that unit, before someone explained it was one of the Directors.

53I worked with a guy named Dick Stack. We nicknamed him Penis Pile.
I know someone who almost named his child Peter Miles Long. He figured it would make him popular with the ladies.
