And don't call me the name in the 4pm title either that would really get me mad, the title came with the quote, I don't approve of that name at all. The point is even as a 40 something, I HATE WHEN SOMEONE CALLS ME MA'AM. I know its a sign of respect or courtesy but, I'm not a ma'am...it makes me feel old! Maybe just call me Miss. How's that!?
