Honoring Be Nasty Day: Times You Should Be Difficult
When people make assumptions about you
Because of where I grew up, people assume I must be spoiled, and have little perspective on life. They don’t know that my parents actually did not spoil me—they made me get after school and summer jobs and work for any special thing I wanted. They don’t know that I did a lot of volunteer work. They don’t know that I’ve always had friends from various socioeconomic backgrounds. If someone assumes otherwise about me, I let them know that it is them whose behavior is disgusting.
