When I was fresh out of school, my AE firm did a lot of work with a GC located two blocks down the road. The point man over there was a classic d-bag; early 40's, supercuts haircut, size 38s (when he should have been at least a 44) with a generous belly cantilever. This guy would question our fees in front of the client to get a lower price ("Wait, your charging me
what? I thought it was
this".)
The final piece to complete this guys stud-dom was a new C6 convertible. Yellow, with a
striking yellow/black interior. Chrome 20's with a yellow lips. License plate read "VETTEZILLA".
Anyway, we have a client in one day to interview GCs for his significant project. Very soft spoken, polite guy. I keep noticing throughout the process the client excusing himself for 30 seconds or so. Finally, Zilla comes in and gives his pitch. Client steps out 2 minutes in and comes back in to interrupt Zilla; "Thank you, but I don't think we'll be needing you or Vettezilla on this project, you can go now and you should really work at using only one parking spot".
I'll never forget the look on his face
