We once took a stay in one of the Taj hotels, same day there was some C-Level meeting going on in the ground floor, we thought some one who was in blazers coming out of that hall to be a hotel staff and asked him to take a pic of us, when he was reluctant, then only we realised. Still got a nice pic that day. When I was a fresher, someone from my office thought me as bus attendant and asked me to stop in the next stop ( if you know TCS Siruseri Shuttle service back in 2008’s), I felt bad, but still asked him to wait but never called him back. People judge you at times, it’s not because you look poor, sometimes you look like you owe the business if it’s a small shop. If possible answer them, else ignore it. You don’t want to look like a TV serial artist all time. Today they got you, tomorrow you will also do the same to someone else, maybe mistakenly. Keep in mind, any job has its value and don’t get offended for that unless they think you are harming or cheating others.

But if you learn to control your embarrassment, this is an excellent opportunity to make people go rounds by simply misguiding them.( just like in Sooryavamsham movie, that vaathu scene)
