"And is this your little helper?"
This type of innocent (ignorant) question I don't mind because once it's explained there is no more to say, therefore I am able to transcend invisibility. My actions are allowed to showcase my abilities as an employee (and adult).
"Oh my! That's a mighty large title for you..."
Is not what I wished to hear after it is explained that I was the holder of an established and esteemed title when it came to where I worked. This type of comment I found to be like an unrehearsed stroke of the bow onto string.

The hand (brain) can't seem to control the fingers (lips) to hold tight enough so instead of a melody, I get to hear the screeching of this instrument. My imaginary reaction would be to get into rock star mode and shatter said wood sound-box against the stage wall and floor. Instead most times I simply choose to leave the concert early with my sense of self intact. At least I know how to pluck my own strings properly. And yes, I'm a guitar -- more times than not, I am pissed [off] while standing!
Note: If you ever encounter me in a work setting, it doesn't matter if it's one of white-collar or blue... SHUT THE F^CK UP!!! Stare if you must, but DO NOT say anything. Looks can be let go, but language always always builds even in demolition mode.

Ugh...people can say such thoughtless things. "little helper"
I love this line: "The hand (brain) can't seem to control the fingers (lips) to hold tight enough so instead of a melody, I get to hear the screeching of this instrument."
