    You’re shocked to find out Joe is short for Joseph? No surprise you’re embarrassed.

      I knew that Joe could be short for Joseph, it just never occured to me that you guys would address the president of all people with a short form.

      There are people called Sam and not Samantha. There are Matts that aren’t Matthews. There are Joes that aren’t Joseph.

      Maybe don’t be a Richard?
