 Do ma'am and sir bother you? Had a conversation with a friend about teaching our kids manners and yes/no ma'am/sir was a thing her parents that spent time growing up in I believe it was Illinois (could be wrong) didn't really push whereas my parents did 🤷‍♀️. I always try to kill 'em with kindness, so I'm a full on you're welcome and no problem!! maxi. Maybe it's a personality thing, maybe it's a regional/cultural thing. But you're welcome 😉🫂
