rinueBecause my adventures in banking are never complete, my bank has decided to spontaneously change the spelling of my first name after months of spelling it correctly post-marriage and years of spelling it correctly pre-marriage. They want me to come in again to prove that I'm me and spell my name this way even though they have scans of all of my IDs on file from January which, yes, say I'm Romie, and which they correctly understood up until this month. Because you see I am requesting a name change and that is the thing which is insecure in this process. It's not that they fucked up seriously and disturbingly. Heavens no.
[Edited to add: A day later, after sending a series of increasingly strongly worded e-mails, this has been fixed without me having to go into a branch. I must say that without my sense of entitlement there is a lot of stuff which would not get done. Someone non-white and non-rich probably wouldn't default to the (correct in this case) attitude that "well, obviously these people are acting lazy and I need to yell at them in elevated language from my expensive education and talk about the money I control until they give me what I want (subtext: and deserve)." It enrages me that someone not me wouldn't get this necessary thing.]
