    I’m Canadian so I’m not sure how it comes across to other cultures but from my perspective it’s a bit too polite. Mr cockroach sounds a bit more like it.

      Yeah I suspect it comes from customer service. It’s very much a “sir you’re making a scene” vibe rather than a “yes sir” vibe. It’s more respectful here to assume someone can handle being treated as an equal without being an asshole about it.
