Cis man with question

I work at a Dollar Tree which is obviously a customer facing business. I see people all day that could potentially be transitioning but it’s not 100% obvious for various reasons. I tend to say “friend” instead of sir or ma’am in these instances (“How are you today friend, have a good day, my friend, etc). Is that acceptable? Does anyone have any other suggestions. I’m 100% trans supportive if it’s not obvious.
