Don't piss me off.

I was chatting with this random elderly woman to pass the time. She was very interested in my philosophy of applied positive psychology. After a bit of decent conversation, she asked me if I worked while attending school and I mentioned that I was a bartender. She gives me this disgusted look and asks, "Goodness, at least you won't be pursuing THAT much longer."
"Oh, I love being a bartender. It's great money, dependable hours, and repeat customer base."
"But you wouldn't want to be doing THAT for the rest of your life.... Ugh..."

Talk about pissing me off! What the heck is wrong about tending bar?? Jeez, she reminds me of my mother who says that bowling is a class statement. Come on!
Forgive me for wanting to serve alcohol into the wee hours of the evening to individuals with a PERSONALITY!
