I am definitely not an arrogant condescending snobbish rich guy, EXCEPT when I am dealing with smug status seekers and arrogant money grubbers. Then I act like they are dirt and I am the Emperor of the Known Universe. These are the sales reps, fund raisers, and other root weevils who would come into my office, insult our security guard and janitor, behave dismissively toward the receptionist, and then try to kiss my ass when I made an appearance. No, HELL NO, that would not do at all. It is amazing how many people would do this kind of stuff. For some reason, Boy Scout fund raisers were the worst of the worst, invariably rude and insulting toward working people, completely obsequious toward anyone they thought might have a pocket they could pick. It didn’t take too many visits to convince them they weren’t welcome. Then one of their overlords tried to blackmail me: “Do you want to become known as a company that doesn’t support the scouts?”
I responded, “Yes, I would like that very much. I am proud not to associate with your scam. Buy a full page ad if you like.”
