I've never met anyone like that, but then I've never been to the bay area, nor have I worked in finance or in NYC.
But my point is that I'm unaware of the stereotype. Saying "don't you think it's true" is a digression once removed from that.
It was in the news that Patagonia or someone was refusing to provide vests to financial companies that they were putting their own brands on. So it seems like that is in the category of "everybody knows" that is a thing. Also, I think I've seen a few pictures of Jeff Bezos in one.
- paulcole 6y ago> But my point is that I'm unaware of the stereotype My point is that you being unaware of something doesn’t make it untrue. Especially something you admit to having no knowledge of the context of.
- perl4ever 6y agoYou're trying to change the subject again, to whether it's true. What I was wondering is whether the stereotype is a thing, not whether it's true. I already said that and I guess you're ignoring what I write? Why are you wasting your time being argumentative instead of raising my awareness? I was originally curious if you are "trying to make fetch happen" or whether it's a stereotype that is widespread.
