Just wondering to myself...

...and kind of to all of you (since I'm posting this for all of you to read!), when did I become old enough to be called "Ma'am"?? It first happened a few months ago and now everyone calls me Ma'am! "Thank you Ma'am", "Have a nice day Ma'am", Ma'am, Ma'am, Ma'am!!! I mean don't get me wrong, I appreciate the friendly customer service, but Ma'am, really? That stinks.

I started getting it when I moved to Montreal. It was a shock.

I was pretty shocked when it happened to me too. Then it made me feel a little old when it started happening every time.
I still get both madame and mademoiselle...

Cari,
Don't feel so bad, my little students used to called me "ma'am" too (senora in spanish)while I was still only 21 ;? uppsss
Lol, I got used to and now it does not bother me anymore...
It is a sign of experience!!
