[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once you get out of areas where everyone is obsessed with prestige and comparing themselves with everyone else, your life gets vastly better. Go to a good school, live in a moderate-sized city with real people, and quietly be a big fish in a smaller pond with little pressure to constantly compete with others. It’s heavenly. [/quote] NP. People in the greater DC area do not realize how abnormal and weird the culture is here. You cannot go more than 5 to 10 minutes of conversation with someone you just met, without them asking: - what is your job? It defines you in their mind. They estimate your salary, education, and net worth based on “where do you work?” They judge you on it. And it is weird AF to do this to each other. And yet that’s how it is here. If you are reading this while living here, I have a weird fact for you: - other communities in the USA aren’t like this. And they are better for it.[/quote]
