We were curious about the impact that condescending behavior can have on people as well. “Condescending advice limits their overall relationship with others. It can create miscommunication with others, undermines their confidence, promotes defensiveness/dismissiveness, and hinders growth,” Gabriela says. “Some people might ignore this type of behavior, but others may also respond argumentatively, sarcastically, use humor, or passively accept the behavior.”

There was a time in my life when I was working 100-115 hours a week. 2 full time jobs, roughnecking and welding.
My dog got really sick during this time. So I was in the vets office waiting on the vet, holding my dog.
Had a guy in a suit walk out with his dog, took one look at me and said, âson, if youâd lay off the d***s and ate a little more life wouldnât be so hard.â
F**k that guy.
And it wasnât like I was skeletal or anything. Skinny for my frame, sure. But not skeletal.

I was 16 and working a retail part time job after highschool hours, so it was like 5pm. A 30s something woman came in with their 10 ish year old child and said “see honey, this is why you stay in school and go to college, so you don’t end up like her.” Then she came up to me and said “I’d advise you to stay in school but clearly your parents didn’t raise you well enough.”.

“Honey, do you know what a millwright is?” Asked some guy after I told him what I did for my job (as a millwright).
