Things that do offend me include:
Speaking down to me.
Patting my head.
Pet names (especially in a place of business where sir or ma'am are usually used)
Speaking about me, but not to me
People who have never seen me before and automatically think I'm going to be a "good listener" for all their woes in life.
People trying to relate.
Not sure about the don't but should part yet. Maybe I'll come back.
