Does nobody tell you neanderthals that this is bull****? No? Then maybe it should be the people who depend on not pissing you off for their paycheck who should be able to do so cause nobody else seems to be educating you. ****ing ****s. God I hate customers.
Although that one time the guy working drive thru with the effeminate voice got called "baby" was still one of my happiest moments.

I get called sweetie and sweet heart a lot by older women, I don't find it condescending.
