Don't feel bad -- it's something you have to keep telling yourself if you're the one with the Daltonism, too. I constantly remind myself that nobody else is going to like the thing I picked out, etc.
It's irritating to others that I always ask for something else if I'm given a color as an identifier. "The red one!" "You're going to have to tell me something else about it." If I had that on a tape, it would remove perhaps 3% of all the speaking I do in a year.
Usually, given choices, I pick red or green and some other colors, blue and yellow if possible. If someone says 'red', I know they mean the one that's red or green, and same for if they say 'green'.
Of course, none of that's really a solution [courier-journal.com].
