Top Law Schools

I walk by the security desk and said hi to "Jen", the security guard. I get on the elevator. Lawyer who I know from the building also gets on the elevator. He asks, "Who is Jen?". I say "You know Jen. The security guard." Guy says, "Oh, her. Nice lady. She always says hi to me. I didn't know her name. How long has she been here?" 3 YEARS. I explain that this is a person you see EVERY SINGLE DAY for 3 YEARS who says hi to you EVERY SINGLE DAY and is polite to you EVERY SINGLE DAY. So as a matter of common courtesy you should know her name. Guy says it's not a big deal. I get SLIGHTLY pissed and explain no, it is a big deal. It's a matter of basic human decency. Guy laughs and says she's just the security guard. I get MORE pissed, say that's disgusting, you're not better than anybody just because you're a lawyer. Guy tells me it's disgusting that I'd speak to him that way. I proceed to go all in on the guy, drop a couple F-bombs and tell him to go back to the junior associate desk he sits at in his boss's office.

I judge people by how they treat others who are less fortunate, less privileged, and less powerful than them. You can always tell a scumbag: He's got friends in high places but ask the janitor or the security guard and they'll tell you he's trash.
