Why do cashiers (not all but enough to piss ya off), call customers "dear" ???
I don't even know ya lady, and I think that's just a tad condescending. Probably trying to make up for the fact you have a sh!t job, and have to deal with the great unwashed every day. Well BOO ****ING HOO, sucks to be you.
You don't even, ever, have to call me sir. I ain't one (a sir), just say thanks for shopping at (wherever), and I'll say "thanks" too, and leave with a cheery demeanor, as I have been treated like a real person. God that means a lot.
Dear is fer one's ya love, or "deer" as in one's ya shoot. Don't never get them confused, eh8O
