One of my patients, a sweet elderly lady, just called me 'honey'.

[Aristus]

I love this job...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. You deserve that, my dear Aristus...

You are a very sweet and caring man.

2. One time I held the door open at the grocery store for an old man

You know, the automatic doors that start to close if you don't walk through them quick enough? So I stood in the door and held it while he shuffled through. He turned around and smiled,reached in his pocket and gave me a butterscotch. When was the last time you had a butterscotch?

[eShirl]

5. That is awesome.

[NJCher]

10. How endearing

You are sweet to be so patient.

And I haven't had a butterscotch in an age and I would love to have one!

3. I accidently called a young pharmacy rep "honey" on the phone a couple of weeks ago...

Fell all over myself apologizing and she just laughed and said it was the nicest thing she'd been called all day. I was really lucky on that one.

4. You are sweet as honey.

[Aristus]

6. Aww...

[In_The_Wind]

7. Anyone who can put up with me day in and day out is special.

I'm certain that over half the PMs in my Inbox are from you.

[Aristus]

8. Are you sure it isn't you who is putting up with me?

[trof]

9. Honey, in the South everybody calls you 'honey'.

I'm a guy and even my 80 year old uncle called me 'Honey'.
Go figure.

[Aristus]

11. Yeah, but this is the Pacific Northwest.

I really don't miss living in the South, (It's been thirty years since I lived down home) but I do occasionally miss being called 'Hon' by restaurant servers.

12. Just today

I got a "Hon" and a "sweetie" from two different ladies. (But then "sweetie" took it back because she didn't want to get in trouble with HR. I told her I'd never report that and she gave it back.. We had fun at work today.)
