In the early 1980's at my first full-time job at a bank in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago, the driver who delivered for Deluxe Check Printers would drop off the day's delivery of checks at my desk. The first time he called me "honey" I let it go. The second time he called me "honey." I said, "Please address me by my first name." The third time he called me "honey" I said, "If you address me as 'honey' one more time, I will be calling your employer." It never happened again in the remaining 2 years I worked at the bank.
