Great stories on the Tylers and Kenny’s. I love hearing about this kind of stuff. I once worked on a construction site where if you counted all the people who weren’t necessarily on site every day; but were involved in the running of the project such as supervisors, commercial/technical functions, inspectors and quality control etc - we counted up to at least 13 Steve’s.
It was several years ago so I can’t remember the exact number other than it was in the low/mid teens. I also don’t have any specific funny anecdotes to tell. I do remember talking to Steve quite a lot, and routinely having similar jovial conversations with my immediate colleague on the theme of needing Steve, having to chase Steve, occasionally just randomly opening doors or windows and yelling/announcing “Steve” in various different styles for no particular reason, occasionally genuinely needing Steve - shouting “STEVE!!” and then realising what we were doing, and just generally finding amusement about the unending number of Steve’s there were to deal with.
You could say it was a bit childish at times, but when the Steve’s align like that, it can easily provoke one into acting the fool a bit.
Was this before or after Deep Rock Galactic?
I’ve had to look DRG up… I’m guessing there’s a prominent Steve in the game? Is he anything like RDR2’s Gavin? 😂
Oh, and it was pre 2020 ftr
I once worked with 6 Tylers.
Two started working day 1 when the store opened, one got hired around 6 months later, one transferred from another store, one was a manager that came in for training, and the last one was technically his middle name, but he was named after his POS father and decided to go by Tyler.
We had Tyler, Big Tyler (smallest of them), Little Tyler (normal sized), Golf Tyler (absolutely hated golf), Tyler Tyler, and Manager Tyler (two guesses which one that was)
I swear, management made schedules to keep them from being there at the same time. Personally I always thought it was funny when one tyler had to take a customer to another tyler. The exchange usually went something like “well I’m gonna hand you off to Tyler here, my name was Tyler it’s been a pleasure” or something along those lines. They always tried to use their names as much as possible.
