White guys say "Hey Boss". Two dudes at work always say this to me plus some of them during the years.
-
They call me brother. I guess to make themselves look friendly.
-
lol @ this thread...yes, I am white...no, I do not say "what up boss".
-
Maybe they just want to boost your confidence up.
-
I think it's an Italian thing, at least from my experience. The prep dudes say bro/brother, and the Italian(-American) dudes say boss.
-
It's the same as Black people calling white people crakka.
Crakka=boss -
Nah cracka = cracka
-
Umm..sarcasm an racism if they don't give u the hulk Hogan brother with da pat on the back clearly there ? affiliates ..
-
Ever hear a white boy get mad an be like ? that ? ill beat that kracker ass ...PS was with some white abolitionists an some guy said ? those abolitionists went riot status
-
I've heard "What's up boss" and "What's up black" before, but that was usually from other black men. Never heard a white guy use it.

Bro annoys the ? out of me.. i think its the tone of their voices

White people use boss as a term of endearment kind of - to show they hold the person in positive esteem.
A friend's cousin does it at restaurants a lot - he says its best to treat and speak to those preparing your food nicely, for obviously reasons -
White men are down with the "boss" thing. Its just something they say.
-
it's not just a white thing, people have been saying "boss" for a while.

Y do some black people think 'brother'/bro is exclusive to them - 'bro' is just short for the brotherhood of man - wtf? some black dudes think they own the term.....WTF? I rarely use the term...HELLO! works just fine.

It's a word of respect, mostly referring to an older person.
