[quote=Anonymous]This is OP. There seem to be a lot of people here who feel that I'm out to get this guy, that I'm going to somehow use this fact against him or file a complaint or trip him up, and then there are a number of people who feel that I'm oversensitive or pitiful or whatever. I'm trying to help this guy. I get that some of you think this is a character-plus for him, a show of respect that he calls women by an honorific. But it comes across very badly. It's jarring to be in a meeting and have someone say "Ma'am, I'd like to call your attention to -- " Our clients don't like it. We are a client service unit. It really doesn't matter that you think or people think this is polite. It doesn't work for us.[/quote]
