True, true. However, I wouldn't feel very guilty about not knowing the FedEx guy's name. I find it draining to remember all the names (and backgrounds, experiences, conversations...) of all the people that I don't really care that much about. I have to make a selection of who to care about and who to forget, or else I'll forget things I know about the people I do care about. That bar is set low, but I still wouldn't try to remember a delivery guy's name.
