Do you call your boss Sir or Maam?

[Clyde_123]

I think in our country its disrespectful to just call them by their first name so I always call them Sir or Maam

[Telekinetic-Potato]

Once I know your first name and a little about you, we can drop that crap.

If you're doing your job and making me look good by being responsible with my reputation, you're past the Sir stuff. Maybe unless there's a client who doesn't know about our relationship and the setting is formal.

I called her by her first name. I had zero respect for her after she legit kept rostering me on to work on Tuesdays when I told her before she hired me that I couldn’t work this day. worst of all, she than threatened to fire me after I fell pregnant and told her I couldn’t work on the Tuesday because of a medical appointment. Too bad for her she had no grounds to actually fire me because she would have been done for unfair dismissal.

I had a job when i was 19 working at T. J Maxx and my boss always wanted me to refer to her as Ma'am but she was a very nuce boss so i didn't mind or have a problem with calling her Ma'am

[OlderAndWiser]

I am two years older than my employer and more respected by our colleagues. He has also become a personal friend, so I call him John.

It depends on the boss. Usually, I will use their title and last name. If he/she demands that I use Sir or Madam, I will feel a bit annoyed, but will do so regardless. Customers/clients/stangers, however, are a different story - then it's either Sir or ma'am.

I never worked under anybody

Even if I did I'd prefer just calling them Mr./Mrs. followed by their name

If they ask me to call them Sir or Ma'am, I'm out, Sorry.. Guess I have a big ego

[Agape93]

Only in formal settings like a meeting, otherwise it's just Roger.

[DrPepper12]

No. All first names for just about everyone up the ladder but in academics people get REALLY PISSY if you don't use their honorifics like "Dr".

[jamesgoldman]

Sir is good, rolls of f the tongue in the mirror in the morning

[FunkyMonkee]

They, mostly, prefer to be called by their first name.

[TacosRAwesome]

At the start yes but later on it's first name basis.

[AngryCarl]

UK here. I mostly call my boss by their first name. If they're super authoritive I would call them Mr. Surname but that is very old-fashioned.

[KostasKouvalis]

At my old job, everyone just called him by his last name 😂

[Anonymous]

No. I've never worked in an environment like that and it is uncommon in the UK.

[Anonymous]

I call him "fudgecake". It been so long I can't even remember anymore why I started calling him that.

[Anonymous]

I call absolutely everyone sir or ma’am as a sign of respect. If they are offended by that I defer to fucktard or cunt.

[Clyde_123]

Haha

[EmmaMary]

We tend to use Christian names only.

[Simslover92]

I live in the south so definitely.

[handsomelad70]

How 'bout Bubba, Billy Bob or Becky?

[shortster]

I usually use their name

[CubaPirate]

Nope I never did

[moneymagnet24]
