  • It’s not really a thing in English but in my native language there’s an informal and formal way to say “you”. Once I was in a store, and somebody’s kid was being a little too loud/annoying for the parents liking, and she told her to be quiet using the formal “you”. It really irked me the wrong way, like you said it was like she was talking to an employee, but it felt even worse cause I’ve never used the formal you to my actual employer and vice versa
