[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just started a job at State. I really want to like the FS officers I meet, but they seem so full of themselves! Superficial even. Is it just the ones who got stuck in DC?[/quote] Snooty people are perceived as snooty, when really they just don't care if you like them or not. [/quote] NP here, but IMO people can tell the difference between self-confident and arrogant. The former is pleasant to be around because they’re curious and interested in other people’s lives. The latter is tiresome because they’re not interested in seeing beyond themselves and their lives . Many, not all, FSOs I know are the latter. It’s a curious pattern that I hadn’t really noticed before. [/quote]
