I can totally understand being shaken up by that, and I agree with your thoughts of being treated like that on a daily basis, and what it would do to your psyche. I think many things in our cultures set up hierarchy of who is "better" than others, based on economic class, work, race, etc. All of that makes us more separate, instead of looking at each human as worthy, and every job as important.

Each and every person you interact with throughout day, is a human being, just like you and me. A kind word here, a thank you, how are you doing, won't go unnoticed.

YES! Big ((hugs))!
