This is what bothered me most about Americans. And what I noticed most when I last visited them
My cousin had moved from Ohio, where he was a failure and had become a success in Northern Virginia, where he learned a new profession. Naturally, he was proud of this.
But this pride went to his head, and he became conservative and identified with his job. I could spend lots of time describing this process, which has happened to most Americans.
There is nothing wrong with being 'proud of your job because you do good work. But identifying with it is going too far.
