Some people call me boss, it’s very affirming but I’m not sure why they do it. I’m a low wage worker that’s slightly weird and awkward

I got this a lot when I was an actual boss. It was always done in a brotherly, jokingly left-handed, kind of way. This fits perfectly with my management style. It was nice.

That’s how I feel about “Big Dawg.” I’m not that big, and not that much of a dog.

When I was a kid, there was a food truck we’d occasionally visit, where the vendor would address us as Chief. “Good afternoon, chief, what’ll it be?” “Coming right up, chief” “Here you go, chief” “Have a great day, chief!”
I loved it as a kid. Not sure how I’d feel about it today, but it absolutely was an effective contribution to us going back there frequently.

Im the some people. I call a lot of folks boss. Held the door for me? Thanks boss. Pumped my gas? Thanks boss. Thanked me? No problem boss.

This is me also. I don’t know where I picked it up from.
My most recent job has a couple of Spanish guys that call the actual boss man “jefe” and he (the whitest guy ever) responds well to it. I think that’s fun. I don’t know if I can get away with it, though, also being one of the whitest guys ever.

Chief maybe? Chef? Jeffy?
