Not at all guys. Zuma, it was not directed to you or anyone else. The snob comment was directed toward some of the people on the golf range when I went who would thumb their nose at kids barely old enough to drink and driving anything older than 2 years of age which in today's dollars would be 100 grand. Some of my co-workers play golf and they are the coolest guys you will ever meet. Golf is big in the banking & finance business. It is all about having fun. The comments were directed to my former bosses boss and he knows it too!! And that guy likes to go to Martha's Vinyard and rub elbows with politician's. He is one of the most arrogant people you will ever meet. The funny thing is the guy that is #2 in the entire company is one of the coolest guys you will ever meet. Luckliy that is his boss who keeps him in line. I can't mention names on who's who or where on a public website.
That guy (the jerk) thinks anyone who does not own a $120,000 S Class Mercedes, or better yet a Bentley that costs 200 grand, a 3.1 million dollar home, have an Ivy League education and live in the most upscale suburb of Chicago, LaJolla, CA. (I loved LaJolla when I went there), or Martha's Vinyard is a piece of garbage.
Sorry I forgot to say I played golf before and thought it was pretty cool. I get a kick out of a high ranking mamagement official at a company I was with who said he gets more tired playing golf then when he played football and lacrosse in college. I guess he was a 4th string kicker in college or a deep bench player in lacrosse. How can golf be more tiring than NCAA Football or Lacrosse?? Now I can tell you for a fact he is Yuppy scum and he think's his brain is God's gift to mankind.
P.S. I miss going to the driving range and my son loves to go miniature golfing and so do I. But I still hate watching it on TV. Sorry I was just venting because that guy I mentioned above thinks anyone lower than him is lower than pond scum. He golfs in the low 70's to about 82 on a bad day and said he should turn pro. I can't say his name but he's a real piece of work. Thank God his boss keeps him in line and my boss has told him off a time or two. This also includes one of the local upper management guys who is a jerk. But thankfully some of my bosses and former bosses are cool and love Camaro's, golf, etc. I guess it depends on the person. I can tell you I have worked with great guys who loved golf and guys who thought anyone making less than a 7 figure salary is pond scum. Even the guys who were consistently making 150g per year even in a bad year were not good enough for this guy. God forbid you were not making high 6 figures or low 7 figures in income. I hope his golf clubs get infested with metal eating termites!!
P.S. I'm much better on a par 4 or 5 than par 2 or 3 (more margin for error). But golf on TV stinks!! It's boring!! P.S. And I hope the jerk bosses I mentioned have all the wood trim accents in their cars eaten by termites as well. Sorry!! I did not mean to offend anyone, I just can't stand some of the individuals at this one particular company who think their stuff does not stink. Real pieces of work I tell ya...Honey I'm going on a business trip. Yea right. That's when he takes one of the single employees and bangs her. Someday his wife will find out. Then I hope his divorce costs more than all three of Donald Trump's (or was that two of Trump's) combined!!
