Be All That You Can Be Or Not

I'm confident that I'm not the first person to bring up this kind of thing.

Every day, on my way to the day job, when I walk past the building's front desk, the youngish guy who sits there greets me cheerily, and always addresses me as, "Sir," which I don't like much. I think the guy is being as sincere as possible, but I can't help but think the, "Sir," thing betrays a certain degree of contempt.

Today, he slipped and called me, "Man," though, which I liked much better. I'm going to see what I can do to trip him up again.
