You know someone that says "what up"? Did you correct them?

I went to a home improvement store over the weekend to price some building materials (starting another home improvement project that I'll undoubtedly need help to finish) and was greeted with a "Whut Uup" by the specialist.

I didn't correct him...but I did ask to speak to "the manager in charge". When the manager was summoned, she asked if there was a problem...and my response was NO...that I was considering a major purchase and wanted to speak with an adult.

They seemed to understand.
