Have you posted that one before? I don't remember that one. Love it though.

I try to post new ones in case anyone's paying attention. I think you're the only one though.

Unfortunately, evil enterprises company protocol requires me to call him "sir" and not out to the parking lot for a "what for" with cleated tire snow chains...

my supervisors take great joy in hearing me tell them stories of my being mind raped for sixteen hour intervals...

Why? Does he reciprocate by calling you "sir" also? You're his senior in age and have been employed there longer, right?

EDIT: IDK why, but that's just second nature courtesy to me, addressing someone as "sir" or "ma'am".

I don't understand this either. Is it not interpreted as a sign of courtesy anymore? There's multiple categories in which you show appreciation for seniority of different sorts. If there's not a fair amount of familiarity, how else do you address people without offending?

IDK anymore. People confuse me sometimes. I also don't get why people are offended when there isn't familiarity and they accidentally address someone as Miss rather than Misses or vise versa. The person is still trying to convey respect without knowledge of your personal circumstances.

We had a twenty-one-year-old, dinky receptionist a couple of years ago who was uppity about the older codgers tossing around "sweetheart", "hon", etc. I can see it, but then again, I had to explain to her that the owner, in particular, has four granddaughters around the same age and it might be an age/culture thing. It's not meant to be sexist. Maybe you need to look at it from a different approach. Blah blah blah. If the close to retirement portion aren't addressing you with any sort of light-hearted familiarity, you might be up ***creek with them.

I have "ze office hubby", and we bounce stuff off each other. Jebus!

She wasn't a really good fit, and didn't last long. :/

I've seen that taken to the extreme though, & it wasn't a good thing to see. long pointless story short, they hassled this girl all the time, then invited her out one night. thinking they were being decent for once, & including her into the group she went out with them, only to be further harassed in much more lewd terms. she quit & moved back home to nebraska.

I was a lowly worker bee at the time, but remember thinking that I wished I could fire the lot of them & get the poor girl her job back, but management at the time swept it all under the rug.

I was not impressed in the slightest.

(I'm not really trying to draw parallels to your story, just that it isn't a totally foregone aspect of some people's experience, unfortunately)

NP. I know that level of harassment happens elsewhere. If it's actually sexual that is completely uncalled for and has no place within the office for the sake of overall morale.

I get bitchy about people who I don't have any level of familiarity with that think they can address me as what I listed in the previous post.
