They pee, poop, and fart just like the rest of us. Respect isn't accumulated and tallied just because of a job or an educational title. Try to imagine those higher-ups in funny, humanistic situations.

I dunno why, but this helps me remember they are humans just like I am, no better, no worse, no more important in the scheme of life.
