I personally don’t like to be called boss, it implies a power dynamic I’m pretty uncomfortable with, whether intentional or not. That being said I’m not gonna start a fight over it or anything shrugs

Back when I was a manager, the new people and especially drivers coming into the warehouse would call me boss.
They were always told once never to call me boss just call me by my name or call me asshole.

I in no way see how calling someone boss would lead to a physical confrontation.
Dude needs to get his shit together. Like a boss.

I would never unknowingly accuse someone of being an oppressor /j (but not really).
