Getting petrol and young guy at till says “that’ll be twenty quid, lad”. Gave the money and he said “thanks lad”

Don’t know whether I’m becoming a grumpy old fart! I’m far from being a lad and thought it sounded inappropriate and almost disrespectful!

What do you think?!

I thought that with age came the wisdom NOT to be offended by little things like that? For your own happiness?

I think the only reasonable response is to go back and burn the petrol station to the ground.

That’ll show him

Down home everyone says lad no matter who they are. To do it in a retail environment is a bit rude though
