[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I detest snobs. I’m convinced the snobbiest people are deeply insecure or just plain a-holes.

Strivers who attempt to highlight their spending habits through pricey or logo’d purchases make a negative impression.

Since my career is in the nonprofit arena, one thing that really irks me is when the most vocal preachy purist judgmental social justice warriors live in fancy houses in largely segregated neighborhoods and send their kids to very expensive private schools. The hypocrisy is so obvious when they don’t walk the walk yet they scream the (hypocritical) talk. These same people tend to draw real lines thanks to their own bias against certain colleges, states, or entire swaths of the country. To wit, an objectively impressive applicant had applied for multiple positions at my org yet none of the hiring managers brought them in for an interview. HR flagged it for me because they couldn’t understand why this candidate wasn’t rising to the top for at least a first interview, and I agreed…but suspected it was because of where they went for undergrad (think: red state). I pulled a hiring manager aside to ask why they hadn’t interviewed this person and they stumbled over their fake excuses. My suspicions were confirmed. In the end, we interviewed and hired the objectively outstanding candidate. Again, a few SJW colleagues allowed their bias to cloud their judgment. So frustrating. [/quote]
