You're young, so you don't quite understand it yet, but as people get older, they don't necessarily get wiser, they don't necessarily "grow up", it doesn't just "happen" to us one day. Always remember, that the only thing most people get better at as they get older is putting up a shiny exterior for the world to look at. Behind the curtain is usually an incompetent or at the very least a regular person not much different than you. In my years working in a unique position to see intimately behind the scenes of many different companies, across many different industries, the one thing that is constant is:
Behind the scenes, they're all scrambling, screwing shit up, being retarded, and they spend enormous amounts of energy to cover up those things from the outside world.

So when you ask a question like:
>Does that actually work?
The answer is, yes. Because just as much as they don't realize that everyone they deal with is on the same level they are, they won't recognize if you're just putting up a good front as long as you do that part well enough.
