I waited in line at the meat counter for nearly 10 minutes while the employee exchanged life stories with the two customers in front of me. He called them both "ma'm." Then he came over to me and called me sweetheart.

My name is not sweetheart and I found this to be very disrespectful. I asked for an explanation as to why the other female customers were "ma'm and I was "sweetheart." He was astonished that I found it rude and offensive. At that point I went to the customer service desk up front and asked for the manager. I told him what had happened and he said if I didn't like it, I could shop somewhere else.

He said he didn't care what the meat counter employee called me. The assistant manager, a very obese female, could barely keep from laughing. Now before you all flame me, don't dismiss my feelings. You may not agree with being called sweetheart or other terms of endearment in a business setting but everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion and not to have their feelings dismissed.

At this point I feel broken inside. Like my dignity and pride were dismissed and I was dismissed as a person.

I reported the incident to corporate but I'm sure they won't do anything.

Reason of review: Poor customer service.

Monetary Loss: $100.

Location: Jackson, Tennessee
