Your pessimism is crazy man, not everything in the world is as bleak and miserable as you think
Get a face tattoo and smelly dreads and see if you're treated like a white guy with a sensible haircut. Also try speaking to them the way you'd speak to people who aren't clients and see if they still like you (ignore if being middle class has erased your ability to be anything but "business casual" at all times). Their good will is dependent on you acting like a proper servant. Not making it as explicit as bowing and saying "Your Majesty" doesn't do anything but hide the servitude in plain sight.
