Yeah...that's the trend these days🤷 at times I find it odd to address such senior people by name...senior as in by age...who r almost at their retirement age and I m just a newbie...I mean these white haired gentlemen must be my dad's age n I m calling them by their name...its weird n I get confused if I should say sir😆 but then, that's how it is😆 I m like yeh aur jyada confusion ho jaega kisko sir category me daalu aur kisko first name category...n I end up calling none of them sir😂
In fact at my home also, we are on "Tu" basis, no aap n all for dads n uncles also...so I m like that always...respect should be in Ur heart, not in the way u address people wali mentality😂🤷
Yeah and in the west everyone are on first name basis and nobody treats this as a mark of disrespect. Infact even I found it odd when I first started working but now am ok.
