Have to be thick skinned and not take things too presonal. I am the youngest guy at my job, and have to deal with the public at times. There are women there who are my mothers age and older so I even get pinched cheeks at least twice a year. I get called:

Junior, youngter, kid, the rookie, the pup, lil man, ding-a-ling, you little muther******, boy, son, bud, pal, homie, playboy, playa, dude, aye-my-man, boss, aye-yo-dawg, fam, fammo, "G", I feel no need to continue. Mind you I work all aroud Chicago.

Now what I do not like is being called by initials...J.J That reminds me of the guy from Good Times who is deemed a clown. I do issue a "please don't call me that" warning for that one.
 
I call people bud all the time. Over the years it replaced dude in my vocabulary.
 
Call it.......Friendo

You forgot "cuz".

I call people "chief" but it's only when I want to get their attention.....like when they're sitting in the staging lanes looking at their handheld device instead of pulling forward.


I kid you not, when I worked at the talent agency in Hollywood, there was a guy who actually changed his legal name to Chief....that's all. No last name just Chief. :eek: That was weird.
 
I dont know about you guys but it seems like everyone likes to call people "BUD" on here!!!


It might just be me but that drives me nuts!



Might sound like a dumb post



Thanks for reading my post BUD!



There is a certain vendor on this board who sells GBodyParts. He has called me "BUD" for Years. It never occurred to me to be upset by that :confused:



HI JEREMY (I know you don't like "BUD") ;)

It might just be me but that drives me nuts! I call my son and my dog "BUD." Not my friends or people I am on an equal level to. When someone calls me bud, it make me feel like they think they are superior to me when in all actuality, they arent.

Might sound like a dumb post but just wondering if I'm the only one that notices that?!!!:biggrin:

I hear ya 'Pimp'. Don't worry about me pulling that 'Bud' crap on you. Check you later 'Player'.:cool:
 
When you age and get older, that stuff is no biggie. I'll respond to almost anything. I agree with the ones who say to work to develop thick skin. Life is WAY to short to get worked up over the small stuff. :cool:
 
i'm really gonna have to watch what i say over the phone now because of this thread. maybe i should use "delicate little flower" instead :eek::D
 
I say "buddy" alot... thank buddy, here buddy, see ya buddy... I dont really think about I just say it..... I dont see a problem doesn't bother me when people do it to me.

I had guy at work say " I'll be your friend but I ain't your buddy" I was thinking REALLY.. that bothers you? I dont even know I do it

anyway, I now go out of my way to call him Buddy:D.... thats how it works at the Fire House.. never show what bothers you:rolleyes:
