*A customer forgets a bag at the counter in a retail store. The cashier finds the customer to bring them their bag, but needs to get their attention first. Because the cashier doesn’t know the customers preferred pronouns, they will use sa’am to politely catch the customer’s attention without assuming the customer’s gender.*
Cashier: “Excuse me, sa’am, but you left your bag on the counter at my register.”
Customer: “Oh my, I didn’t even realize. Thank you, sa’am, and have a great day!”
Cashier: “No problem, sa’am. You also have a great day.”

Get the Emilia Saams mug.
she’s the type of girl to hate you and love you at the same time, she’d give you mixed signals, even when you’re just friends. she’s bipolar but she has a big heart and cares too much. she’s always quiet and only speaks when she’s addressed. she’s polite and shy but loud at the same time, when you get to know her, she can be a very fun person.
she’s the type of girl who’s and extrovert and an introvert at the same time.
