My day job is architect. Architects generally, are a friendly bunch who like to hang by the watercooler and contemplate things. Naive, idealistic. Optimistic.
But these days, they are not as friendly or dependable. I have caught one out front of one my projects taking pictures of it to knock off for another client.
Dumb enough to admit it. I got out of a truck with jeans, boots and a tee shirt on so I guess they assumed I was not the architect. Another one told me how clients who annoy him get cheated on their billable hours.

And...I think I know the building that was knocked off but there is nothing that I can do about it.
Am I depressed about it? No. See it as the natural landscape. Finally, in later years, I have a grasp of what human nature really is most of the time. "it is what it is."

So...Good luck in your endeavors as well.
