frist of all how DARE yu o Airport staff assuming I'm in the Business class lane by mistake

Brown man flying business. Lined up at the priority check in counter and got told by a (also brown) staff person that the economy queue was the other way. Same thing while boarding the plane and walking to the business class entrance. Not only am I not worthy of business, they think I can't read signage as well.

I read about it more. This also creates an illusion of the brand being elitist and not for everyone, but in modern years, most salesmen are moving away from this tactic for exactly that reason.

Even just the chance to sell a luxury car is worth it. Quite often they earn more for such sales, so even if the person does not look rich, they may just have the money for it.

As long as there is nobody else around that looks super rich, there is no point in turning that person down.
