I come across a ton of snobs at my work and it seems that they have super high expectations from everything and everyone in life because they have this superiority complex that constantly has to be fed. It’s probably just how they were raised given the status of a majority of our clientele. They’re an exhausting bunch though.
I was raised on the opposite side of the spectrum being reminded often how little I deserved from the world so I was forced to be very humble at an early age. Took me years to get to a balanced place and because of that anti-doormat way of living I can come across as someone along the snob lines when I don’t cater to narcissists, or just normal folks expecting way too much from me. When I’m tested I definitely let it be known that I do in fact know just what I deserve in this life and anyone who tries to convince me otherwise isn’t worth my time or energy. I guess the snobs encountered at work think the same way. We just have a difference of opinion on our levels of expectations and the vastness of the wake left behind.
