    I lived in Baltimore for HS and College, so I'm used to being called "hon" by strangers. I also live in the South now, so small terms of endearment aren't uncommon (at least in my small town). But, it's time and place. I'm a graphic designer and the owner of one of my clients calls me "baby" and "sweetheart" all the time and it just grates on me. Luckily, I don't deal with him directly or don't see him much. I'm not 100% sure he even knows my name. But, whatever- it's not worth fighting over for a once-a-month, 3-second pass in a hallway. But a waiter or cashier throwing out a "darlin" or a "sweetie" doesn't bother me.

    I've put a stop to people calling me everything from sweetcheeks to kiddo (my father was the only one allowed to use "kiddo," thanks) in a professional or academic situation.
