On train the other day, a woman was hogging seats with her bag. She was wearing a name tag "Carol" from one of those low rent supermarkets. I simply said "Carol can you move your bag so people can sit please" . She gave me a terrible look but moved bag. She was about to talk to me then put her jacket over her name badge. Like was I really bad in using her name when she had it to world to see. I get it may not have been her badge, but she looked like a Carol so I think safe to assume it was her name. I moved away as soon as there was another avail seat too, to avoid her . But back to point if she or anyone wears a name badge why is so wrong to use it or call them by it?
Not wrong for using the name on the badge it was visible and likely intended for that purpose. However, it's possible she felt uncomfortable being addressed that way in a public setting. While calling her by the name on her badge isn't inherently disrespectful, it’s important to consider how someone might feel in the moment. It wasn’t rude, but her reaction suggests she may have preferred not to be directly addressed.
