Every night people walk in to the restaurant.

I say hello. How are you?

And they walk up and say, hi we have a reservation for four.

And then go silent.

Uh. Should I guess your name?

Or they say John.

I have 17 John’s with a reservation. Do I have to guess which one?

Or they say hi this is Sarah Smith.

Uh. Would it be under a different name?

No Sarah Smith.

Are you sure?

Oh I’m sorry John made the reservation check his name.

Or they say hi we have a reservation for Sarah Smith.

Uh. I don’t have a Sarah Smith.

I swear I have a reservation. Here’s the text you sent me!

Could it be under a different name?

No. Sarah Smith.

How about Sarah Dumbowsky?

Oh yeah. I forgot. That’s my maiden name.

I could continue this for ten more pages with examples of people not knowing their names.
