"Boss"

Post by cardsfansince82 »

Whoever thought it was a good idea to call people this needs to be kicked in the nuts. I can't go into any place of business nowadays without some young guy calling me "Boss." Be glad I'm not your boss. Because you'd be fired just on principle.

The one that I can't stand is "guy". As in "Excuse me, guy".

I hate this one the most.

I think "captain" is acceptable as long as it is paired with an insulting nickname. For example, if someone called a coworker "Captain Flatulence", I think it would be funny. Though it would gain obscurity points if they called him "Admiral Flatulence of the U.S.S. BaconStripe".
