    One time, I got a job at a large, chain electronics store as a warehouse associate. They already had a guy there named Tim, but they immediately decided that they liked me more than him, and renamed that Tim (that worked there for 2 years) to “Other Tim.”

    I would be honored to be called Human Sanctus if there was already a cat with my name.

    Jokes aside, it’s probably easier for the cat to learn to ignore “Human Connor” than it is to learn a new name for themselves, right?

    Oh snap! I once worked somewhere that already had a guy with my name and he asked me to use some other name. I thought that was bad enough (and told him no). But this is next level.
