In my job I meet clients from all walks of life so I'm addressed as all sorts.
"Hello, kitten dear."
"Good morning, darls."
"I wouldn't mind a cuppa, pet. Milk, two sugars."
"Could you repeat that, darling?"
"My ****ing ex-wife, excuse my French, sweet doll, she..."
"When will I know, sweetie?"
"Where should I sign, my lovely?"
I probably wouldn't mind that sort so much if it was said in an informal social setting, like a pub, but in my own office? Argh!
