Me: Yes.
Gentleman: So what are you trying to become?
Me: I already have become what I wanted. I'm a professor here.
Gentleman: No! Are you?
Me: Yes, sir.
Gentleman (taking off his sunglasses and peering closely at me): You've got to be kidding.
Note to self: don't leave the house without makeup.

I never minded being taken for a student when I was young enough for it to happen.
I can't say that I mind when a stranger on a bus does it. But I do want to be taken seriously by students and colleagues.
