Why do some cashiers refer to the customer as "boss"?

Asked by Vinifera7 (2856points) September 9th, 2010

I get this quite often. I’ll walk into a shop or establishment and the cashier, clerk, or server will say “What can I get you, boss?”. I get also get it when checking out: “Thanks, boss.”

I don’t know why I feel strange about this. Has this happened to anyone else?
