I know exactly what you mean about property developers
When my friends and I first moved into our last place, I was the one that mostly dealt with the agents. The one who dealt with our place was an officious git, and really quite up himself*, but was at least polite and well-mannered to me when I spoke to him. Yet when my female housemate rang him up he was apparently a patronising, misogynistic cunt. There's obviously a running theme...

haha
it's new grad week at the moment. we are getting literally hundreds of phonecalls because they are making ridiculous requests for things we cannot provide or support.
if anything is worse than a toff, it's a graduate toff!

Ha, that one could probably cross over with the "Helicopter Parents" question from two weeks ago...
One of my colleagues is a warden in a graduate hall. These are people who've already spent 3 or 4 years at university, and apparently he's still staggered by the number of students who've emailed him with such inspired questions as
"Can my parents stay for the first few nights?"

Doubt there'd be too many toffs among that crowd though; I expect those ones are just waiting for Daddy to have Jeeves fix the horsebox so that they can move their pony into the roof garden of their Marylebone flat, yah, yah.
