As for ignorance...I really hate it when people treat me like a child or talk down on me just because I am deaf. When I was working for the insurance company before returning to school, my co workers were probably the most ignorant people ever. Even after 3 years of working with them, they never said more than 3 sentences to me each time I approached them. I tried to initiate conversations with them but they would just smile this frozen fake smile and nod their heads rapidily. If they do answer, it was usually in monosyllables.
Man, I sure did feel like a 2nd class citizen among them.
However, I got the pleasure at the end cuz after I graduated with my degrees, I paid a visit to my old job...to my surprise, many of the same people were still working at the same old jobs and they still complained about boredom. I felt good cuz I am sure they were shocked that I made it and have a better job than they do.
Those kind of people I dont interact cuz they refuse to learn or open their minds ..just stay as close-minded as they can.
