imagine a line worker comparing themselves to a ceo. tim gurner is right the workers really are becoming arrogant


The word you're looking for is "uppity." "Arrogant" is the CEO assuming he's worth hundreds of times more than a different man.


at least in usa the word uppity has some other connotations. also i was quoting that guy as saying arrogant so i guess he was the one looking for the other word not me


Yes, those other connotations would be what the other poster is accusing you of secretly thinking.
