So, the young cashier at Home Depot called me "Bro"

The guy ahead of me in line, who was probably 10-12 years older than me (so late 50's to around 60) got "Sir".

I think that's a pretty good sign, actually. I'd rather some young guy about 20 consider me closer to his age group than the AARP set.
