When the sheer luck of the birthright lottery is converted via psychological magic into a sense of entitlement, expectations of special treatment and a delusional belief that tax reform constitutes “class warfare” are predictable. Prof. Piff confirms experimentally the arguments of Aaron James’s 2012 book Assholes: A Theory. Like George W. Bush, some people are born on third base and think they hit a triple.
in support of my thesis.
What?!
umm... there are some really rude poor people out there, too... just cruise the internet for video clips...
This fact was kept quiet.
Have you looked at the McDonald videos? Entitlement is not restricted to the rich, it is just entitlement attitude no matter whether you get it from the Government or Daddy. It just leads to rude behavior.
Nutbag confronted by bag of nuts.
VP Joe Biden is rich. How much did he give to various charities this year? 10 or 15 dollars as usual. Has all the money in the world, he as the scum in the WH also, yet neither give a dime. That is just as snobbish and rude as being rude with your mouth. My wife and I both are retired and we gave “______” (far more than these fools combined) this year to our church, charities, soup bowls, soup kitchens, can food to food banks, missionary groups, etc. We gave because our hearts said to and because our LORD blessed us far beyond our needs and we give back because we need too, want too, and the LORD requires it.
Writer comes to a conclusion about 10 million people by way of a sample of one.
I’m guessing socialist.
Whoa. That's a little more than a slap on the wrist. I can't say I disapprove, but it doesn't really serve the author's thesis very well.
In my personal experience "The Rich" don't really even know who they are most of the time and are no more or less rude than anyone else, but understand that my personal experience is heavily weighted toward American culture. Nevertheless, there is more than a hint of real class hostility in the author's choice of phrasing. I can think of few wealthy individuals who are less pretentious than George W. Bush, for example. Certainly the issue may be more pronounced in the glitterati-infested jungles of Monaco or Dubai, the Hamptons or the Cote d'Azur, but as long as they leave me alone I'm fine with leaving them alone. Just my $0.02.
my first take on this was she was a giant a..hole.
But the flip side I have heard is the airline give there customers a certain standard of service in first class
The customer is paying a big Premium for a certain standard of service in first class..
The women in question, an airline executive, saw that the employees were not giving the quality of service the airline expects for its customers paid for in first class and that was her critique.
consider that you go to a five star restaurant you expect five star food and servicel.and you're going to paying a premiun price for it...
If one of the owners of the restaurants comes as a customer and see the employs half assing and not delivering the 5 star quality of service...they're very likely to pitch a fit and start firing people on the spot...
think gordon ramsey and hell kitchen...
I've done customer service in business for years
I believe in using the golden rule with customers, and as a manager I expect employees to all follow the same golden rule with customers
That an employee, any employee, as the face of the company, is to treat the customer the same way that employee themselves would want to be treated if they purchased that service from the company.....
I also expect the customer to treat the employee as with the same courtesy of the Golden Rule ...treat the employee as if you were that employee..
... The thing is as a boss you don't want to be an a****** to your employee
But also as a boss you have to be an advocate for your customer
it's a very important that you the boss be the customer's advocate, else your just a business trying to screw over the customer and not deliver what the customer paid for ... your business deserves to fail if you do that kinda crap
You as boss and if you run an honest business have an obligation see your customer gets what they paid for
if you see the employees not delivering the service or product the customer paid for is your obligation to jump on it right then and there
BMW drivers jump lanes, disregard stop signs and speed limits, are exceedingly rude and smelly!
