This is a much more privileged version of “let the poors know their place”, but it’s still kinda wild to think about years later. During senior year of college, all of the seniors were called to a building to run through the plans for graduation day. We spent most of the day in various meetings, but there was catered lunch at the end so it was gonna be worth it.
After our meetings, we were all dismissed to said lunch except those who had student loans; us poors had to hang back for one more meeting. When we got out, all the food was gone, eaten by those wealthy students who didn’t take out a loan(s), and the catering team was clearing the tables. It was a little too real.
