In a Dramatic Attempt

In a dramatic attempt to learn cute no name’s name following yet another conversation about possibly getting drinks in approximately 1 hour 15 min I emailed the guy behind me:

Subject: shhhh

What is the guys name who was just at my desk? I don’t know all of people’s names yet! Whoops!

Him popping head up: “I don’t know I wasn’t looking!”

Me: “What?? Ahhhh…OK hold on…”

I sent another email with physical descriptors. He obediently replied with a guess for a name and ? Then I realized, even if he guessed correctly, I don’t know the name so how will I know if it is correct. I’m in quite a pickle.

UPDATE
I just got an email from no name. It has been solved. HOWEVER...it is a name that can be shortened thus STILL presenting a problem. One would think, if you were said no namer, that if I really knew who he was, I would indeed know if he preferred short or long version of the name. AHHHHH. I guess I am just going to have to go the "so do you like being called..." Sucks.

I'm so happy you are back!!
I'm guessing they don't hang name tags at desks like PC did. Actually they do that where I am now, too..but anyway, my thinking cap is on! Are the mailboxes separated by department; Would the receptionist know?; make friends in HR - they know EVERYTHING:-) (use Trish as the example) hahaha - good luck. miss you!!
