Ask to speak to Paul

 

Chew?

Or you could just start right at the beginning and ask how to pronounce it?

"sorry, being awfully rude here, but is it paul chew?" - and then let him correct you if necessary

 

"Hi, I need to speak to Paul...err...Choo...did I get the surname right?"

Wouldnt worry about it, probably gets it all the time.

 

Call him number 30.

 

Say it whatever way you think is right, if they don't understand say it again but much louder.

 

*meh*

 

and point as well. don't forget the pointing.

 

Id ask for Paul 'Cho'
'ch-o'

 

I would've guessed at "choo" or "shoo".

 

just start of

"Hi there i've got an interview with is it Paul...chow?"

and they will soon correct it, he probably gets it alot.

order me an egg fried rice whilst your at it

 

Ring up and ask for "Steve" lol

 

and the prize for funniest throwaway comment on the forums today goes to.........Phate.

you should post in GD more.

 

its only 1 'o' clock

got the rest of the day to go yet

and i mainly browse rather than post

 

Paul Ciao tbh

(Choo is probably more likely!)

 

If they still don't understand, he should march over there and smash the place up and scrawl his name on the walls. Secure in the knowledge that he tried his best.

Or

employ a bit of common sense and just ask to speak to Paul and that you are unsure about how to pronounce his surname.

He won't be insulted if you have to ask how to say his name, he'll probably be pleased that someone has asked beforehand to make sure they say it correctly. Guessing his surname will probably offend him if anything.

 

its number 58 tbh mate lol.

i think its 'chew' i have an asian mate whos almost constantly online except... now, otherwise i would have asked him

 

lmao

 

According to the opera speak function, it's Chow. Dunno if it's correct though
