Any other brehs/brehettes notice this (work-related)?

I'm not the only black person at my job by a long shot, but it is majority white.

That said, one thing I've noticed since I've started working is that people always seem to remember my name and I rarely remember theirs unless I work with them daily. Like I'll be walking through the hall or in the parking lot and random people will be like "Hey acri1 how's it going?" and I have no idea who they are other than them looking vaguely familiar so I'm like "....hey how's it going :skip: ".



Anybody else have this issue? I'm not sure if it's more related to me being a minority or if I just have a bad memory, or maybe if it's an introvert thing, but I've noticed this pretty consistently at various places I've worked. I'm trying to get better at remembering names but I haven't had too much luck so far.

This is how its been at my latest job.. Been there for a year and still can't remember a large majority of folks outside of who I directly work with. I'm introveted, with bad memory so it's probably a combo of both. I find something to relate their name to and read through the company directory from time to time to remember names

There's one other black person at my job. I don't have a problem remembering any of my coworkers' names though.
