Well, she deserved it.

See, this is why I hate to be called ma'am. It's because where I am from people only do it to mock you. Now living in South Georgia everyone calls me ma'am and no amount of begging will convince them to stop.

-please don't call me ma'am

-yes ma'am
-doh sorry ma'am

I've lived in Louisiana for nearly four years now, and not only do I hear 'sir' and 'ma'am' all the time but saying it has practically become a verbal tic with me. Before moving here, I seldom said 'ma'am' and only if I was addressing a woman of a certain age. Now everyone is ma'am. I fear the Southern Borg may be taking me over -- so much so that I seek reassurance from family when we talk on the phone that I'm not developing a drawl.
