My twenty-something hairdresser calls me 'Miss Judy'. I think that might be a southern thing?
A young restaurant server called me 'Honey' this week. That means I'm really, really old... right? lol

The only thing I really dislike being called is 'You Guys' by restaurant servers, as in, "Are You Guys ready to order?" or "Are You Guys doing ok?" (I think that means, "Do you both need more drinks?") Surprisingly, I hear "You Guys" most often at the nicer restaurants! Maybe that's why I dislike it so much. When I'm all dressed up and eating in a fancy place I don't want to be addressed as 'You Guys'.
Madame & M'sieur would be more appropriate, don'tcha think?
