8. In my current job I help a lot of Brazilian computer users

and I have a colleague from Brazil. He was explaining this to me.

He has four names. His first name isn't even in his email address. And there's a limit to how long the email address can be. It seems whoever is creating the IT records for this global company doesn't know what to do with all the names.

There's a lot of duplicate names too. So you'd better know exactly what the full name of someone is the first time you contact them or you'll get the wrong employee.
