You decide to go out dressing nice and someone thought you're a person of inferior status. Long story short: I dressed up to day because I'm the interviewer for a scholarship program at my school. One of the applicants came up and asked me if I worked for campus security and started asking for directions. I mean WTF? I was about to strangle the SOB with my pocket square.

These people are inferior? I'm 35, established, happy, and I don't live in LA, so I guess "status" doesn't mean much to me.

who are you to accuse another of inferior status? i just hope you're not one of "those people" who pride themselves on material goods and social status.

but anyway, were you carrying either of the following or a combination:

-a giant walkie talkie
-small, square lensed sunglasses
-bluetooth headset

if not, you must work in some really rich school for the security guards to walk around in suits...unless the person asking you was just plain whacked out.

Odd, I've never felt inferior to you.

If you're treated like someone of inferior status, often times its because you're carrying yourself like someone of inferior status.

I do not allow people of inferior status to look at me, much less approach me for talking. They are summoned when summoned and that's it.

Otherwise, they are merely specters in white.
