watch how he reacts when a server messes up his order, when he gets stuck behind a slow driver, or when a mild plan falls through. a guy who is genuinely solid stays grounded and treats people with baseline respect regardless of the frustration, whereas a guy with a bad core lets that quick flash of entitlement, arrogance, or sudden anger leak out the second things stop going his way

Stuck behind a slow driver is different from the other two. At least drive the speed limit. The rest of us in society have budgeted our limited time to get where we need to be when we need to be there.
