Technically I'm a doctor too - a doctor of love.

I bet it’s not even the doctor type of Dr. Typical that some academia demands to be addressed by Dr.
My PCP would rather me call him Bob.

Older I get the less I care about people’s titles-doctors, reverends, judges, deputies, etc. especially if I’m not in their work place.
You’re lucky to get a Mr, Mrs or Miss.
And if someone corrects me I can guarantee you I’ll laugh at you and walk away.

I’m terrible with names, so I love titles. Much easier for me to remember what someone does for a loving than to remember their name

I wonder what the percentage overlap would be of those on this thread who firmly believe the jackass is in the right for refusing her request, and those who would be offended if I repeatedly referred to the leader of their religious institution by their first name instead of Pastor, Father, etc. I have to think it would be quite high 


Couldn't care less.

Imagine a cop demanding to be called "Officer X" while off duty or some shite

I would think it’s weird as frick, and would probably make a point of avoiding their crazy arse in the future. But in the moment? Alright, Officer.

Not sure why the fact she's black has anything to do with the story, much less to be included in the post title...oh yeah, it's the OT.

I mean, dude was being a dick. She asked politely and he wanted to be a dick. Not sure why this is even a story. People work hard to earn those titles and in a professional setting, like a council meeting, they should be addressed by their professional title.

But again, it's the OT, so of fricking course "black woman gets volunteer fired for not referring to her as a doctor" is on the front page with 6 pages of replies.

How do you fire a volunteer? And why is the Zoning Commissioner even a volunteer position? Sounds to me like they did the guy a favor.

They may not demand it but there are a ton of police officers that get addressed by some version of their rank like Sarge, Cap. Etc. while off duty.
