You're walking along one day when a mom protectively pulls her 13/14 year old daughter close as you walk by, as if you were a wild boar. She points at you and tells her daughter "See that sweetie? Whatever you do, make sure you stay away from people like him ok? Losers like that complete failure will bring you down and ruin your life."

You don't recognize her and she said it loud enough that you heard every word.

How do you react?
What do you do?

Light a cigarette and get into my IROC Z and tell her I'll see her in 5/4 years, then crank up Rocket by Def Leppard and do a burn out

I'd probably bust out laughing. In some ways she's right, in others not so much. It would be wild to have that happen randomly, though.

I had something similar happen once. At my old job doing maintenance at an interstate rest area. Cleaning duties were part of the job, and I e day I was sweeping up the trash from the parking lot. And a guy pulled his kid over, and told him that if he didn't start studying and doing better in school that he'd end up like me. I heard him ask "You don't want to end up like him do you?"

I wasn't in a good mental space anyway, but that had me disheartened for days.

I dunno, sweeping a parking lot doesn't sound that bad. Kinda weird to think some people are always looking around at people like that.

Funny, back when I truck driver I heard someone say the same about me. I was so confused since I made good money and liked my job.

The one that confuses me is when people talk down plumbers

Plumbers make bank and in constant demand. It's a great trade to get into

In the social hierarchy among tradespeople, they are above bricklayers and plasterers, but below electricians.
