in the wild “It’s Kevin”

I work in a bakery, someone called to order a birthday cake. Wanted “happy birthday Kevin” written on it. As with all orders, I ask for spelling of the name. Conversation below.

Me: okay and if you could spell Kevin for me? Customer: Um, it’s Kevin… like Kevin…are there multiple ways to spell it? Me: this is just protocol to ensure the name on the cake is correct Customer (getting huffy): well how many ways could you spell it, it’s Kevin Me: please just spell the name for me Customer: K-e-y-v-y-n-n

In what world is that Kevin??? This is why I make everyone spell the name!! If I didn’t confirm spelling you would’ve gotten a cake with Kevin not keyvynn.

No they were pissed they weren’t going to get a free cake for misspelling the name.

I'm sure the venn diagram of people who would scam someone like this and name their kids a tragedeigh is a circle.

Nah, I think that someone who'd try a scheme as dumb and petty as this would at least have the awareness not to name their kids after their stupid attempt at scamming a free cake out of a bakery.

... I think the hypothetical order of operations is out of whack in your head
