Polite and Sweet

My patients (I'm a pharmacist by profession) are, generally speaking, easy-going and friendly. I especially like the local old-timers, the ones who have lived in this area for all of their lives. They're so polite and sweet. They have a northern New England accent that is lovely to listen to. It's not as harsh as the Boston accent which is prevalent to the south. It's softer and more sing-song. They all call me 'dear,' although they pronounce it "dee-yah" with each syllable equally accented.
