Would you be insulted as the 27 year old in this scenario?
The 27 year old man works in an office as the assistant to a 35 year old man.
The 35 year old man constantly refers to his 27 year old assistant as "kid" and "kiddo".
Example: "Thanks kid" , "Any plans for the weekend kiddo?"
| Yes | 7 | |
| No | 17 |
If whoever said "kiddo" was like 50, or older. No problem.
I'm 26, so to you I could be "kiddo".
But if the age gap is less than 15-20 years it seems a bit odd.
I wouldn't get insulted, I don't mind nicknames, but if someone aged 32 said "kid" to me, I'd give them an odd look.
It wouldn’t bother me to much. I still get called to young to even work and surprised I drive. I get it a lot so it would be nothing out of the ordinary. Although it can get annoying. It’ll be a compliment at some point.
No that's cute especially if you're both guys, source am 27 and people still think im a teenager a lot of times, it's nice
I call anyone younger than me kid/child. I am also 23 so I am still closer in age to that of an actual child.
Kiddo would get annoying. But if it's this guys slang for anyone younger than him so be it.
