you can call me erni
People need to realise or be educated, that not all names, are constructed like the westerner's names.
BS : Your name?
me : Erni M Kasim
BS : Ms Kasim, blah blah blah
me : You can call me Erni. Kasim is my father.
Everytime they call me by my father's name, I'll correct them insyaAllah.

hah! i experienced that too, many many times tau ..
when i joined IBM 2 mths back, when my phone was ready for collection, helpdesk emailed me:
"Abdul Aziz,
Your phone is ready for collection. Kindly collect it at IT Helpdesk at Level 5."
I emailed them politely to correct them too. Hahah, tapi kadang2 cute la jugak wen come to think abt it though they're wrong. hahah
i don't enjoy being called Kasim. It's so.... not feminine. :D
