It's a sickness.
I left home early one morning and a old white cazzack neighbour was out there peering though the windshield of my then car trying to see something. Possibly the chassis number as that is was located behind the screen in that model. She was engrossed in what she was doing and it was early in the morning so she wasn't expecting anyone to be out and about.
So as I approached she eventually noticed that someone was there.
She stopped what she was doing, walked away from the car and adopted this "I'm gonna ignore this dangerous kneegrow who is about to bother me

" demeanour as she scurried off ..
Now imagine if roles had been reversed

Generally a normal person would apologize and possibly explain what they were doing but no, high and mighty pinkie, as usual, knows that you are the bad guy and they are the good guy. Even when they are causing trouble.
That and many other instances of similar over the past few years have shown me what I needed to know

.
So I turned up to a new office a few weeks ago. On site at a project in another cacland. As soon as I walked in I got hit with an avalanche of

. They couldn't believe that the high powered Ivy-league-esque consultant was a kneegrow. What these people don't know is that on the inside I am hitting them back with an greater avalanche of

. I don't look at or speak to people unless it is something to do with work. Outside of about 5 people that are involved with what I am doing I wouldn't recognize any of them if I saw them in the street.
From me it is blanket

. I come and leave in silence. I do my own thing and that is how it will remain until I leave

. I act like it is an empty room and it is driving them crazy because they are somehow under the delusion that of course I would want something to do with them. They expect that I would be there making jokes, being friendly and chasing every female that moves but nah. Ain't happening.
I just move in silence and ignore their attempts to undermine me smug in the knowledge that they all know that I get paid more in a week than the vast majority of them get in a month. And yep, they tried their best to undermine me when I first arrived but it's less now because they figure that it just isn't going to work and because I know my way around their systems a lot better now.
There are 600 people in the company and thousands in the building. In my short time here I have seen two other brehs who were both short-term visitors. One from France for a few days. Not sure about the other one.
