Andy Ross of Washington state was picking up a few things at the grocery store after work one day when he noticed a little girl staring at him. He had only been in the store for a minute but knew he was legitimately dirty after his long day working in the woods has a way of doing that to you. But Andy wasn’t thinking too much about his appearance when he ran inside to grab a few things. Then, to his shock and dismay, he heard the little girl’s mother whisper to her, “That is why you need to stay in school,” obviously believing Andy was a failure based simply on the fact that he was dirty. She was about to eat her words as Andy served up a heaping dose of reality.
Taking to Facebook to share the story, Andy explained exactly how he completely blew the woman’s preconceived notions out of the water as he revealed his true identity to this obviously ignorant woman.

“So, I had a very interesting educational conversation with a woman and her daughter today,” Andy began. “As I entered the store, before I got home, a little girl kept staring at me, which is fine. I know that kids are curious when they see someone, especially as dirty as I was,” he explained, cutting the kid some slack. However, her mother’s remark would be a different story.
“They ended up in front of me as I was checking out,” Andy continued, speaking of the child and her mother. “Little girl still staring, her mother told her to stop staring. As they finished and headed towards the door, I hear her mom say quietly to the little girl, ‘That is why you need to stay in school.’ I figured this was a great time to educate this mother and her 7-year-old daughter.”
Then Andy outlined the conversation he had with the woman who decided to judge him so harshly over the way he looked, detailing every word he had for her.

“First, I happen to be a very educated dirty man,” he told the woman who was likely clutching onto her child for dear life at that point. “I not only have a high school diploma, I also have a college degree and many medical certifications,” he informed the woman. “So, assuming that I am uneducated because of my appearance is actually quite ignorant in itself,” he added.
