What is the most appropriate way to address a waiter?

There are really fewer and fewer words that can be used to address young women

In the past, teachers were generally used to address gardeners who teach and educate people. Now, no matter what field, only If you want something from someone, you can call them "teacher"

In the past, a lady usually referred to a woman who was slightly older than you, but now it is used to refer to a special profession

In the past, "little sister" was used to refer to women slightly older than oneself after young ladies were stigmatized. Now it is used to describe beautiful girls (regardless of whether they are older than oneself)

Laomei used to be used to call younger sister. Now with the popularity of Northeastern dialect, Laomei always gives people the feeling of wearing a white mink with garlic.

So, it is now used to describe young women. The word "laomei" is really becoming less and less

Laomei can't be used to call stewardess. Calling waiter is disrespectful. If you are not handsome and calling you beautiful is too frivolous, it will be considered vulgar. Male, it’s not very polite to call a stewardess “Hey, what’s that”, so it’s really difficult to call a stewardess properly

Some people say that stewardesses fly in the sky every day, like ancient gods, so you can just call them fairies. , but doesn’t it feel too inconsistent to call a person in professional attire a “fairy”?

So, I currently think the safest way to call someone is "Hello". On the plane, raise your hand to let the stewardess pay attention to you and say "hello" at the same time. The stewardess will definitely understand that you need help. This is probably the best way to greet someone when you don't know how to address them. It is not only applicable when addressing the stewardess. You can use this method to call a waiter when eating in a restaurant, or calling a shopping guide when shopping in a mall. I feel that although the word "Hello" is not particularly cordial, it at least sounds much more polite than "shopping guide". It is a universal way to address someone when you are not sure how to address them/0dd7912397dda144a3640a7bb9b7d0a20df4868d?x-bce-process= image/resize,m_lfit,w_450,h_600,limit_1/quality,q_85

On the plane, it will look very strange if you directly call the stewardess, such as: "Stewardess, please give me a glass of water."< /p>

The image of a fool appeared on the paper.

Calling you "waiter" will make you look unskilled; calling you "beautiful" will make you look uncultured, and may be misunderstood as a chat; calling you "hey" will make you roll your eyes; calling you "master" will be even more indecent.

However, the dialect advantage of Northeastern travelers is reflected at this time:

"Old girl, give me a glass of water."

Although It doesn't sound very good but it still makes people feel more friendly.

However, as an experienced driver, I must tell everyone

Flight attendants only like one title, and that is: "flight attendant". /f3d3572c11dfa9ec412730de69d0f703908fc1ea?x-bce-process=image/resize,m_lfit,w_450,h_600,limit_1/quality,q_85

This question is a bit interesting. If you are flying at Guangzhou or Hong Kong airports, calling "beautiful girl" or "beautiful girl" directly is not a big problem, but the usage rate is still not high. Stewardess is the common name for female flight attendants, corresponding to flight attendants. Nowadays, high-speed rail is also very developed. Are female high-speed rail flight attendants commonly called Sister Gao or Sister Tie? Just kidding, of course that's not the case. If you call the stewardess or flight attendant directly, it will smell like corn.

According to normal standards, regardless of professional position, men and women can be accepted everywhere in a Chinese-speaking environment. But since miss has been redefined and interpreted, you really need to be careful about how you address women, as you may get angry if you are not careful. You should also have noticed that nowadays, the title of "stewardess" for female passengers has been changed to "ma'am". Can passengers also call flight attendants ladies? Of course, they can, but the reference is not strong. In the crowded environment of economy class, it is not easy to notice which one is being called. Not a big problem in business class. Perhaps because it is too rigid, not many stewardesses are called this in reality.

Different industries have different names for women. In fact, the most commonly used one is "Miss", at that time, a lady was a symbol of status. Look now, who would dare to call a woman a lady. If she said this, she would be slapped a few times, let alone her, even if she was Passersby will turn back immediately.

But this is rude to others. I think the best way to call a stewardess is "beauty". This kind of language will sound more comfortable to others, and will make a deep impression on you in an instant. Besides, This kind of title is also a kind of affirmation to others. Nowadays, any stewardess is extremely beautiful! /e4dde71190ef76c68abf9de29616fdfaae51678d?x-bce-process=image/resize,m_lfit,w_450,h_600,limit_1/quality,q_85

Of course, as for what it is like to be called a "waiter", I saw several flight attendants on the Internet. Regarding the staff’s answers, one of them said, “It’s quite disgusting. People who call you that are definitely very incompetent.” Another person’s answer was, “I’ll obey you!”, and of course a little girl said something. "It doesn't matter what you call it, as long as it can solve the passengers' problems." (To be honest, I admired the last one when I saw this).

Although the sample size is too small, it is impossible to deduce from such a situation that "most flight attendants have no objection to being called waiters", right? Later, many people who did not know the truth said that we were "all mocking the flight attendants." In fact, you only saw this issue after it became popular.

Having said so much, in fact, the key point is the word "decent". Some (emphasis added) flight attendants feel that being called "waiter" is not decent. People with this view (not just some flight attendants) are likely to have certain problems with their career outlook. It is because they themselves are very sensitive to this or have low self-esteem (to put it mildly).
