※ 引述《jazzstanley (stanley)》之銘言:
原PO這篇讓我想起去年十一月去New Orleans開會
我朋友跟我在消費最貴的觀光區邊緣
發現一家很便宜但超好吃的小小餐館
店裡的客人幾乎都是當地的勞工階級 黑人或混血的克里奧族(creole)
我跟我朋友跟我都沒什麼錢
所以我們幾乎每天早午餐都在這家小店解決
每次走進店裡 他們開口招呼講話常常都是有親暱的稱呼
"how are you doing, babe?"
"what would you feel like, honey?
"thank you, sweetie"
而且我發現在他們不只是對客人這樣講話
他們連彼此對話問候都會加上這些親暱的稱呼
反而是去觀光區那些很貴的餐廳
店裡的服務員比較不會這樣跟我們講話
其實一開始我跟我朋友有點不適應 因為這些稱呼實在太親暱
但去吃過幾次飯之後
反而覺得 這有一種中下階層照顧彼此的親切溫暖
不太像是觀光區裡很擁擠人群 但又很疏遠的關係
