At the store...

I am at the cash and there is a woman behind me.

No mistaking that it is a woman.

Cashier says to me: Thanks have a good day!

Cashier says to the woman behind me: Do you need a bag SIR?

I start walking away SLOWLY so I can hear if he says something along the lines of: "Oh sorry ma'am* that just came out wrong!"

Nope. Nothing.

And of course she doesn't correct him because HOW RIDICULOUSLY EMBARRASSING would it be to say "I am not a sir"?

I really hope she didn't go home and like freak out or something just because that idiot cashier decided to pretend we didn't hear him call her sir, and now she might think she looks like a dude.


*Ma'am is the WORST thing you can call a woman in my opinion.

I would rather be called a cunt.

Seriously.

But either way I would despise you.

Unless you were REALLY young and you called me ma'am, then I might let it go because you were trying to be respectful of my oldness.
