    Something similar. I worked at golf driving range and a customer approached to buy a bucket. I said "What can I get for you ma'am?" He was an old guy with big man boobs. Ouch. I gave him the bucket for free.

    Yes, I have said sir and ma'ma  to the wrong gender more than once. Usually I catch it and correct very quickly. I have never had any customer throw a fit.

    No, but I've accidentally mistook a man for a woman and called him "ma'am"
    He looked like a little punk chick, sorry..
    Anyway, I get mistaken for a "sir" all the time because I guess the short hair and not very bulbous chest throws people off. Usually my mega girly voice is a give away, it's disgustingly sweet. I hate it so much.

  • "No" ... here in California, where you can never be sure anyway,
       you learn to just say, "Excuse me." (No sir or ma'am)
