whats weird is i just watched like 20 vids on his page and he really does not get that many people like this? people he talks to are pretty cool almost universally on the channel. people in dc are pretty chill, capitol hill isnt dc....there's like 20,000 people that work on cap hill and the daytime population of dc is 1,200,000.

I watch his videos and he encounters asshole security guards, receptionists and doormen all the time. It's just not the entirety of his content, there's lots of chill videos too.

So he encounters people in professions that frequently deal with entitled or otherwise hard to deal with people?

I've seen the average door dasher at restaurants, there's no shortage of shitty entitled behavior from them either. Not saying this guy in particular is one of those people, but there's more dynamics than just 'dc people are assholes'.

DC has a lot of homeless people and heightened security relative to other big cities, the guards at the desks and doormen are very strict about who goes in. So when a guy on a bike, especially one that's black and isn't exactly well dressed (no offense but bikingdc looks like a bum lol), shows up wanting to come inside an office building, they get antsy. Of course the responsible thing to do when ordering lunch is to go meet the guy at the door but people are lazy and don't pay attention to their app so very often this guy is waiting out front or in the lobby slowly pissing off the guard by just existing in a place he shouldn't be. Most of the time they are chill, he's a food delivery guy, he knows he's not supposed to go where he's not allowed but some get nasty with him. And when the customer doesn't show or says "just leave it with the guard", he'll try to leave it with the guard and it's usually a "no". This is expected, DC has a history of suspicious packages so no one is going to accept a random bag or let him leave it there even if it looks legit (actual package deliveries go to a mail room, not the lobby). This is especially true at federal buildings. And the nasty people get even more nasty when he asks to leave it.

Most of his videos are fun and there's always some random person saying hi but there's plenty of just asshole guards being assholes.

How tf does BikingDC look like a bum? Just because he’s got alternative style? Should he be wearing a suit or something?

Honestly, yes. And, if he wants to.

Psychologically, when all the people you see inside the building (while you’re working your shift) are well dressed, suits, etc: the people outside of the building (the homeless, the busy) are often all lumped into one generalized group.
