The soldiers have changed or I’ve changed

I work as a janitor in an Army reserve office building. Used to be most of the soldiers were respectful. They were more respectful than my bosses or co workers and I was around the soldiers more than my coworkers: Ever since Covid hit their attitude has changed.

Maybe they were insincere all along but they used to seem happy to see us and many of them would thank us for our work. Now their friendliness and thank you’s seem insincere like they don’t mean it and more often than not they will burst into laughter at me. It’s rude. I don’t think everyone is laughing at me but it happens often enough.

I used to think the soldiers were cool, the women were especially cool. Now they seem on edge and a lot of them act treat us differently, almost like we’re enemies. There’s still a lot of them who at least try to act respectfully but the majority seem arrogant and like their sole purpose is to win. I was talking to my co worker a few times and I said the soldiers are obsessed with space and he agreed. It’s impossible to get any space anywhere in the building.

Sorry to hear they are not respectful to you.

Neighbourhood here most of em havd superiority complex delusions of grandeur.
All of them prance around I’m superior anc im better than you and your a woriloser … etc

Sometimes they fake being nice if it is in their best interest for “power” anc their sick sh it they do.

I think majority of them are stuck up hateful nazis.

You should be appreciated anc valued and treated beautifully.

Polite and respect society is dead out the window.

No one cares about treating others as they would like to be treated.

This is what I’ve seen change the same behavior is on the internet.

Things are always and will never stop changing and maybe we will once again respect each other.
