Seriously, try addressing people in that southern manner in a northern or western workforce environment or anywhere else and see how they will respond by thinking you're some sort of pushover, or else you will be thought of as the company's submissive bitch. 

Outside of the south it is sort of queer to speak in that manner. You will come off looking like a servant or butler from archaic times.



Sounds like you're just a dick with an agenda. Sir.

Well, it's true. Responding to people with "ma'am" or "sir" comes off as sounding like queer role play or submissive/domination type of stuff. When it doesn't come off that way it will likely sound like a uniformed robot who spent a lot of time away from civilians.
