behavior

I had an incident today (I won't go into it; it will just upset me again) and it got me thinking about how people behave in situations when they are stressed. Is this behavior indicative of your actual personality? If you respond to a mistake that someone makes by yelling and screaming obscenities or with compassion, I think this says more about who you are and your upbringing than anything else.

Perhaps even if you live in the "right" zip code, drive the "right" car and volunteer for the "right" organizations, you can still be trashy and mean. Money can't buy class and I think that many people forget that.
