Naaah.  If that were the case they wouldn't put up with folks like you.

Perhaps because they are required to call you SIR by their management?

They HAVE to say that.  If they don't, Coca Cola Beverages Incorporated will
go after their collective necks with lawsuits for illegal use of trademark.
"Coke" is a trademark.  It remains one only because Coca Cola lawyers go
after places which use the trademark to refer to other cola beverages.
Also, some of us consider Pepsi to be that synthetic beverage that tastes
almost, but not quite, completely UNlike Coca Cola, and for that reason
detest and despise the stuff.  We appreciate being warned that we would be
served this swill before the shocked taste buds cause us to spew it forth
all over our tables in disgust.
