I'll never understand why anyone would ever use their real name as a username. Why would you intentionally dox yourself?
- For email? Business.
  
  Still wouldn't do it.
  Edit: Also, using Gmail as your businesses email address is extremely unprofessional. You should be using your own domain. You can always forward it to Gmail.
  
  Bro over here using megacock420@gmail.com for job applications.
  
  Lol it's admin@[my.domain]
  
  Pete the plasterer isn't setting up his own domain, you absolute goober. There's a lot of small businesses that are just companyname@gmail.com
  
  Not everyone has the knowledge/interest/money to buy a domain and set it up with their email, let alone switch their logins to a new email.
  
  When we get resumes, applicants that don’t have some variation of firstname.lastname@… as their email tend to go on the bottom of the pile.
  
  Good, cause I would never want to work for a company that petty.
  
  Previously you claimed that using the Gmail domain is "extremely unprofessional". However, a company that considers email addresses with real names to be more professional is "petty". 🤔
  
  There's a lot of people here who have no idea how little the general public cares about technology.
  
  I fully agree with you.
- Because a lot of times you specifically want people to know who you are lol.
  
  My son at the bank with the director (the manager wasn't there) opening his bank account:
  So first name, your mail is: hellfireturtleboonstox@gmail ...
  Son:🥸
- Just pause for a few seconds and think before you type
  
  I stand by what I said. This is basic privacy 101
  
  What if you need to make money though lol
  
  That's why I have a job.
  
  My work email is my first and last name haha
