I was Mrs so many times that doesn't really bother me any more. Mostly it's funny specially when you see people little embarrassed. It happened on Wednesday at ER. I was waiting about 3 hours when nurse shouted very loud (whole ER could hear):
Nurse: Mrs. Kern
me (after 2 seconds looking around if there is any Mrs. Kern around):: Do you mean Mr or Mrs Kern?
nurse: I don't know it's written Viki
me: oh then it's me
nurse (laughing , and whole ER too): I transformed you to a women
and then explain to the doctors what she did.
After I came back from x-ray.... ups, she did it again. She shouted Mrs Kern and when I stood up she and whole ER started to laugh again. So 4 hours waiting were not totally boring. :)
Another similar thing happened last year in New York at the hotel reception. When I told my name a guy looked at the computer and said " And where is she?". He didn't laugh, he just became totally red :)
