First name, last name. who cares, get off your high horse. As long as they are not disrespectful or out of line what do I care.

Do you not introduce yourself during your captains meeting? "I'm mr. official, and you all better remember that"

I find it funny that people get all up in a bunch of coaches or players say something to them, then they want to tell others how they prefer to be addressed. It is no more of a high horse than folks that claim to get upset if players or coaches say certain things to them that results in a T. Unless we are friends or I know you really well, I do not want you calling me by my first name, which is why most business do not have their people calling their customers by their first name.

Most businesses address you as sir, unless there is an introduction as in, "Hi, I am bob" then the employee will call you Bob.

If you don't know someones name you don't have many options of what to call them.

Most of your statement JRUT made no sense whatsoever.

Well anytime I go in to a bank or I call a company that I do business with on the phone they say Mr or Mrs to their customers (cable, electric, gas or phone company). And yes they know my name, because they my information in front of them or I have to verify it to them before we can proceed. They still call me Mr. Rutledge. They never call my Jeff or my full first name. NEVER!!!! I also cannot recall them calling me "sir" after they know who they are speaking to.

knowing a name and having an introduction are 2 different things. I just think your horse is getting higher by the post.
