My major per peeve, is when people in business (mostly in banks), government officers or medical staff (especially in hospitals), judge you exclusively on your current income and how you are dressed at that time. I have endless stories of times when I may have just finished training in martial arts and am in sweats and joggers and looking like I wasn’t worth a who heap, being treated like an unemployed, homeless moron. Or these days because I have long hair and am partially disabled (left knee is screwed) get treated the same. I hate it when such people in these industries talk down to you and treat you as though you are semi literate. I got so pissed off at one Government Department that I photo copied my Psychology degrees, diplomas and membership certificates from professional bodies and literally rubbed the area manager’s nose it and instructed him to read them before he spoke to me again, at which time I expected an apology. At least I never have a problem with my own physician, she refers counselling clients to me..
