Default RE: Quickest way to become an a@#hole..

Troy/Shed33 hits the nail on the head for me as well.Because I am a business person in a primarily liberal community/area,I get the I can't believe you hunt? You don't look like a hunter,seem like a hunter etc..I also have the instances in certain stores where I get the schmo who thinks that I am a wannabe or wet behind the ears.It honestly cracks me up!Because you have a tie on,because you are clean shaven,because you can hold your own in area's of social interaction,you can't be an effective hunter?
I have a number of instances where I havn't said a word to the supposed authority who was talking down to me,where I didn't say any thing but in my mind was thinking dude if you only knew.Not meaning to sound egotistical,just looking to point out a common mistake that people make.These type of things happen across all area's of society.
I have been in different types of stores where clients of mine who are hands on contractors but very successful have been ignored or dealt with in a snotty way by a salesperson,and I have smiled and thought about how ignorant that salesperson was being about who they were dealing with and that persons financial capacity.The old saying about never judging a book by it's cover is really appropriate!
