Code switching. Super common with southerners living outside the south in my experience. We all have various degrees we let the accents out depending on who we're talking to.

I can almost completely hide it at work if I want but I let some through bc people like a little. If I talked to my coworkers the way I talk to my siblings though it would be a disaster because of prejudice around our dialect.




I didn't expect it to be automatic!
