No, I'm not trying to be funny or insulting.
Not too long ago, I addressed this woman in a store whom I initially thought was a man. Very short hair, no makeup, jeans, t-shirt, nothing to suggest femininity whatsoever. I referred to her as "sir" and she about went ballistic. "I am NOT a 'sir', I'm a 'ma'am!!! How dare you? Blah blah blah..." All I could do was apologize over and over again. So embarrassing....
Anyway, has this ever happened to you or know someone it has happened to? How did you deal with it or she deal with it? And how did the other person who addressed you as "sir" react when he/she was corrected?
