Call Me Sir?

· 🌡️ 39°F

So me and @mk went to the Eastern Hills mall for some post thanksgiving shopping and while it was busier than normal it wasn't too crazy cuz that mall is never too crazy, except the bonton that was relaly crazy. There was one thing I wanted that was on super sale but i did not wait cuz the lines were redic!!!! That was the only place that was like that, i don't think they had better stuff it just was that thye had far fewer cashiers!

Anywho that is not the point of this story. I went to American Eagle where I am probably becoming a little too old to shop and I haven't bought anything in a while and the like 16 year old guy worker hands me the like coupon thing they were givin gout and says "here you go sir" and when I was leaving he said "have a nice day sir". Now i prolly have been called sir before but something about tihs time seemed so harsh , it definitely felt like he was saying it in a "Have a nice day old man, be careful not to trip on your wlaker on the way out" or "Here you go old geezer maybe you can find a nice gift here for your grand kids" it made me feel really old, like reals old!!! bleh, all in all though i got some good shopping done today. I even went to target at like 930 and they still had the doorbuster sale iten I wanted and there was like noone in line! SCORE!

    Heh, don't go to Delhi - you get called Sir every where by everyone regardless of how young or old you might be. After a while if someone doesn't call you Sir, you wonder what's wrong with you.

    Well can we agree that Sir is a proper term. Would you rather he said Dude, Bro, Bra, Mate, chap,broham, cousin, playa to me they all seem weird, oh I guess he could call you, young man but that is insulting the other way kinda.
