    My manager introduced me at a company picnic to the guy who hired him years ago. We no longer worked in his org, but he was still someone who my boss admired. The guy had already had a few drinks and reached out to shake my hand. On my way to shake his, he happened to glance at my badge (I forgot I even still had it on) and noticed I’m a contractor.

    “Oh, you’re a contractor?” As he immediately withdraws his hand. “Are you at least working to go full-time?”

    He literally never shook my hand. It’s been over a year and I don’t think I’ll ever forget that. What a dick.
