Rich people look like aliens to me. Perhaps because I haven't been so close to them ever since I grew up and because
Most rich girls at my school were just a bunch of classist bullies.
A few days back I was given the task of collecting medical history of a lady planned for a procedure the next day. She was on the VIP floor. Only the filthy rich can afford rooms on that floor of this hospital. Anyway so when I met her daughters I was like 😬 Dude I swear I've never seen so much jewelry, hair, makeup, nails, shoes and expensive gowns at the same fricking time on human beings before. I thought they're getting ready for a shoot or smth. But Nah that's just how they wake up everyday. In a lot of expensive stuff. Not used to a pea of inconvenience under a dozen soft mattresses of their beds. I'd never seen such specimens close up. The epitome of royalty. When I met the patient herself she was a 75 year old lady but I'd have never believed it. She looked around 60 and that's about it. Joints and spine in great shape. Does gym. Where's the gym? At her fcking house. Like... An entire space just for a variety of gym equipment. Anyway so when I was done, they requested wild things, but money and power can get you wild things. I realized they weren't used to hearing "no". Whatever they asked for, they fcking got it. So the next time I met them, it was in recovery. I tried to make small talk as I removed her catheters because she was anxious about them hurting. I asked her if she enjoyed cooking or baking or smth. She said "oh I hate cooking. I have never had anything to do with the kitchen. I've never ever even been in the kitchen of my house" I said "yeah me neither." and she said "not that it's to say that we never have home cooked meals. We have food sufficient to feed 200 people cooked in our house every single day! A really large variety." I just.... I didn't know what to say. I didn't think it was an important detail to even speak of. So I said "wow that's cool!"
So yeah that was my awkward interaction with a rich person.
