Call me what you like but not when Man u's on the box. ;D

Love, dear, buddy, mate, pal etc. It's all the same. It's just something to cal someone to be nice, when you don't know their name. It tends to be looked down on by people who believe they are above that and somehow demand more respect than everyone else, while most of us just carry on and say 'no worries bud' because we realise that just like us, the people who work in shops are human.

I firmly believe in treating others how I'd like to be treated. I don't mind being called mate or love etc, so I have no issue using those phrases.

(I can see how this threads going to end up going already, so on that note - I'll bow out of this conversation! )
