I hated when my boss referred to "the wife" as he was talking about in inanimate object. I find the term offensive.

It's funny that she became a real person, (Kathy), because he had to consult "the wife", when he wanted to buy some liquor.

I found it very off putting to be called "chief" and "boss", as some people can be bothered to remember someone's name.

BTW - I am single.
