I have to interact with new hires who are mostly new grads quite frequently. I have noticed this in 90% of the cases that people who join big companies right out of school have such an air of arrogance and high-handedness! They are so full of themselves, I just feel like b*tch slapping them! I seldom hear words like sorry and thank you from them. The look on their face (with no smile/warmth whatsoever) is that they are better than everyone else! I’m from a top 30 CS school; not top 10, so definitely didn’t have such friends but I see more of such people at work and through some other avenues. My question is simple: y tho TC: More than such arrogant, cold new-grads.
+slap them
+1 slap them
Watch "Good will hunting" and see how Sean Maguire earned respect when dealing with arrogant Will Hunting.
Probably cause they haven’t seen the worst. OR they are really smart and they know it. And people have to put up with them cause they can get shit done :/
The latter part is the problem! It’s so wrong to be a d*ck if you’re smart. No one cares TBH!
They never had a sh.. job before graduating.
20ish me—from UC Berkeley—I acted entitled too but 10 years of experience and learning to overcome hardship esp after graduating post 2008 teaches me resilience and just to be kind and grateful. It’s also easier bc as a woman in tech I always feel like an underdog
Ok boomer!
lol — OP might be a boomer but I’m a millennial and feel this way about other millennial too. Maybe I’m blessed by not growing up upper middle class
New grads aren't millennials anymore, Boomer
Yeah as a recent ish new grad who went to a top 5 cs school, there are a lot of new grads I work with that are actual fuck sticks, like relax buddy you and 10000 other 23 year olds make 200 grand a year, you’re not special
Celebrated their entire lives and paid 300k starting salary. Why would you expecting anything but?
Not sure if you’re justifying their behavior. That way every billionaire on the planet should be d*ck too right?
Didn't say it was justified, saying it was expected. If you are a young person and told you are awesome everyday of your life and then celebrated at college and paid better than many if your peers most will feel invincible obviously.
Slap them!
How can you slap?
Dem cheeks
