Guess some things never change. Like the slang of the generic greeting by most customer service representatives of this generation.
Mum used to tell off a waitress, especially if she came over to us women and said, “What would you guys like?”
What’s wrong with “Hello people!”
Or hello there?
My typical response when it crosses my eardrums is, “I’m actually a woman, not a guy.”
How and why do you suppose this generation got so hung up on, “You guys?”
I’m stuck on that one.
Just sayin’…
