Oh, duh. As a person who's had the same firstletterlastname format email at a company I've worked at, I should've realized that lmao

Mostly I get given my first name or full name. Getting just [email protected] feels pretty awesome when it's a common-ish name too.

That's a serious power move in a large org.

Unfortunately that's always been in small orgs lol

Though in one that grew rapidly, I was in the last batch of people whose mugs had no last names on them. I think my employment contract was like #80 or something and 3 years later when I left, there were like 200 or 300 people working there
