Residing at the southern most point of the continental USA I am constantly confronted by the unaccustomed south land salutation of SIR. 

I hear it all the time and I look around and discern that it is directed at me. When I question why SIR I am told it is an expression of respect (to an older man). 

Well you can imagine how that sits with me!

Then out out of nowhere someone changes it up and throws BOSS at me. 

It’s all very confusing. Just call me Fred (or Derf) :)
