"HI LADIES" -- IS IT RUDE TO USE THIS GREETING FOR 3 PEOPLE?
Closed 13 years ago. In addressing three people in an email isn't it more polite to use their names rather than "Hi ladies"? Also when you walk into a quad cubicle isn't it more polite to address people by their names? Grouping people together when there are only three is treating them as interchangeable, and is disrespectful isn't it? From bing.com

IS IT "MEN'S" OR "MENS'"? AND WHAT'S THE RULE? [DUPLICATE]
