Using sir and ma'am to address people...
#4
RE: Using sir and ma'am to address people...
I never use ma'am, but I use sir all the time.

Even on women sometimes.


The sir thing is from my years at the defense contractor. Wasn't required, but I fell into the habit and it seemed to help. One supervisor in 'cubeville' that I did not report to actually hated it. soon, others picked up on his dislike and rapidly, that was the only thing he was ever called.

sorry there, it was all my fault . . .


I did use Ms. there quite a bit. But never ma'am.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
