I’ve been a waiter at a restaurant for 2 months now, and I’m still the newest hire in my position. There’s this one co-worker who I always get along with and we always joke around and have fun when we share shifts. We’re work buddies if you will. The problem is, even after 2 months of knowing her, even after driving her home once, I still don’t know her name!! I’m in that very weird place where it’s far too late for me to ask and I’d offend her somehow. I tried looking at the employee roster, but it’s so big and there are so many other unfamiliar names, it’s been no help. I also don’t really want to ask my other co-workers for fear that they’d tell her in private. It’s a very gossip-y workplace, and I think news would spread. I’d also like to say that this isn’t the end of the world, and I can easily recognize the humor in this situation. All my friends laugh at this.
