Some young whippa-snappas have gotten it into their heads to call me "Sir". One of these days, I wll say, "I am not an officer. I am just a corporal. Please refer to me as corporal."
Like with the "automatic senior discount", maybe people are just being courteous,or maybe they are being condescending. I haven't figured out which, so I am just going to try to give them the benefit of the doubt.
