I've always had this fear that someone is going to call me sir in front of my parents, especially my mom. I knew it was bound to happen and has, but she never said anything about it or acknowledged it so I felt a little relieved that maybe she didn't hear it.
The other day we were in the car and she wanted a drink so I went through a drive thru and when I got to the window, the guy told me the price and ended it with sir. Well, I just kind of chuckled and said he called me sir because I knew she heard it. She laughed a little and said, well you look like one because that is the way you want to look. In saying this, she wasn't being mean in any way but instead acknowledging that it was no big deal to her and that it happens and why it happens. She has come a long way for sure. Now I don't have to worry about it anymore.
