I don't like being referred to as Mrs. Jim XXXX. I have a name and it's Pam. It's not the "Mrs." I dislike or the last name because I chose to take his name. I don't get this one often, but when I do I just politely say "my name is Pam". I'll probably get hammered for his one but I just feel I deserve my own identity. They can call me Mrs. Pam XXXX but at least give me the respect of using my name.

Recently I had a tall woman mention my height (5'4") and basically make fun of me for being short. I just very politely said "I'm fine with being petite, I've really never wanted to be a big woman". She shut up fast. I guess she didn't like being called "big". I'm not making fun of tall women here, so please if you are tall don't take offense because I could care less about how tall someone is...just wanted to shut this gal down in a hurry!
