Didn't. Even. Flinch

Dear young man checking me out at HEB,

I would appreciate it if you would refrain from calling me ma'am.  You could replace this with, "Hey. What's up?" or perhaps "Did you have a killer time on 6th street last night?".  Just a suggestion.

And more importantly, when you scan an alcoholic beverage and a message pops up on your screen that says, "Is this person 30 or older?" you might want to pause...or glance up at me...or best case scenario ask for my ID.  What you DON'T want to do is press "Y" at mock speed as if there is no doubt in your mind that I'm over 30. 

Thanks in advance.
