Depends on the crowd and local terrain I've come to find..
I now live on the east coast of Florida.. very tourist and high-class white trash, and doing Farmers Market(there's a joke in here) deals here aggravate me to no end, aside from being agoraphobic. There's a rarity I find anyone aside from our local club, maybe a well-ripened rock hound, or collector that knows the word "Lapidary" or "cabochon", so majority of interactions I feel more of a professor of the lost ages. Some of the questions I am asked just baffle me upon trying to understand.
Anyways, I find most people, that once they see what work goes into my hobby, get completely blown away to want to pay me to teach them or build them machines.
