This is truth!
Taking things personally is a sure way to identify yourself as an unenlightened being..

It really depends on context.
Growing up, it was always a term I associated with respect. My Dad was often referred to as Chief, but he was rated a CW5. It's a term of respect that some of his former soldiers still use for him. As such, I carried that into my adulthood and use it in that vein.
It has gotten me in trouble a few times though - I'll call someone that without thinking about it, meaning respect...and they get all offended. But then again I do work in the Indian Gambling industry.

'buddy' is just as bad
Is it just me or does this get used way too much lately.
Every "buddy" of mine when we see each other it is a race to see which of us can use it first.
I am starting an anti buddy trend where I will start greeting all of my friends with hey a**hole.
Probably wont go over well but it will make me chuckle.

I find some customers who are from India and places like that call everyone, "My friend."
