I don't care if they're rich it's that they're almost always rude, ignorant, and annoying. I'll admit I'm particularly sensitive about it because growing up I always felt excluded for not Having. The neighborhood I'm in with this gig is very wealthy and conservative and after working there for a while I've just become bitter and spiteful towards the majority of them. You would to.

I had this problem when I was working in a copy center because 90% of my customers were business owners - the kinds of people that wear tailored suits with 14 karat cufflinks and probably bathe in vintage vino, abusive to the people they call "the help".

They always think the world revolves around them, as if one person making minimum wage with about 12 other projects that came before theirs can somehow manage to make 25 coil-bound, double-sided, 250-page full color booklets in under 20 minutes because you're a fancy fucking businessman who was probably busy snorting coke in our fucking bathroom before you placed this order.

Real fancy businessmen don't pick up their own orders at the copy shop. You were just dealing with their toadies.

For the most part that's true, but their cronies are just as shitty as they are.

I was not aware of this but I'd like to learn the difference.

You've just described 90% of poor people as well.

Again, poor people are dicks too. Except whereas the rich think poor people are beneath them because poor people are ignorant trash, poor people think they're better than rich people because their down-to-earth sensibilities make them curiously more enlightened.

Every economic class has legitimate criticisms of the others, because all people suck. They just happen to suck in different ways sometimes.

I started a firestorm a while back by saying the same thing.
