So, we just got back from a cruise, and we had a balcony suite at the VERY end of the boat. Those aren't cheap. There were four of them, and it was us and 3 white couples. The first day, as we're walking to our suite, this older cac asked us, "Are you guys lost?", and I said, "No, I know where the fuck we are.", which made my wife go :eek2:. The way he stepped to me made me respond like that. The next day, the guy responsible for cleaning the cabins recognized me and the wife, and came and gave us a hug. Apparently, he was our guy on the Oasis of the Seas boat, and since I kept telling him jokes, and the fact the we gave him a great tip, he remembered us from last year. Go fig. The old cac saw that, and figured that maybe we did belong there. Later on, we were at one of the poolside bars, and the same old cac asked, "So, what do you guys do?", and I responded with: "Work." (It wasn't his fucking business, and yes, I was a little standoffish.) After that, dude had nothing but salty looks and disdain for us. The other couples were cool as shit, but this one dude just couldn't accept the fact that we could legally afford to be where we were. It was like once he found out that we were where we were supposed to be, he made it his mission to find out how.

I've had to deal with this a few times, too.

Difference is I'm younger, and I travel alone. I don't really look my age, either. While I'd love to say I workout everyday, and am ripped, my days of being active are clearly behind me, so they know I'm not an athlete.

I remember this CAC got really red-faced at me when I was flyin' out to Seattle some months back. He asked me what did I do for a living and I told him, 'I'm the largest reseller of Girl Scout Cookies on the eastern seaboard. '

The things with CACs, if you don't know any better, you'll find yourself spilling your guts to 'em, because they know how to be nosey as fuck in the kindest ways.

FOH.

Never thought of it that way. :lol: It was only a trip to the Bahamas. Any fool can afford to do that.

I'm just fucking with you ... but I do know for a fact that there are still CACs in the USA who have trouble believing black folks can be intelligent and some of us have a few coins to rub together. Some are being smart-asses, but some genuinely believe we all lack intelligence and are broke.
 
Peace,

You too old to be this angry. :lol:
 
I took a tour of a real upscale public school with my wife.
I had gotten there late but my wife was early
so coming in I didn't realize I had been talking to the principal and the parent coordinator we hit off joking what have you
During the tour, I politely held the door and this white woman smiled said thank you and pointed to a piece of paper she had apparently dropped on the floor
and motioned for me to PICK IT UP...
she wasn't alone
she was WITH her husband...
but she was trying to ask ME.
Just as I was about to say something
the principal walked by and started joking with me
Cacs were salty as f*ck...pissed

but once it was over
and SUDDENLY I was the most popular guy in the group
they asking who I was where I lived etc etc...

this is why I KNEW Trump was gonna win and predicated WAY BACK.

because I KNOW these white folk.

They fronting.

What in the fuck is it with cacs and that question? And they find a million ways to get to it.
:eek: So you enjoying your vacation?!?! :angry:"So what do you do!!!"
:eek: "so it's nice to get out and enjoy the weather!!" :angry: "So what do you do!!!"
:eek: "It's nice to get away from it all!!" :angry: "So what do you do?!?!"
