Cheers to that. I've gone through the same thing. My tech work had me installing wireless equipment on highrise roofs in a major city. One time I went down from the roof to the top floor penthouse to set up the owner big wig dude with our service. It was an absolutely beautiful place, and I was just taking it in, and was admiring the view from the balcony. He started showing off the view and really went on about it, inviting me out to the balcony. I should have taken the hint that it was important to him, and just gone with it, but I mentioned I just came from a better view and pointed up half joking and it completely deflated the dude. He probably isn't even allowed up there on the roof, and I had a 360 view up there. I tried to recover and fumbled out something like 'but to wake up to it every morning, wow' but the damage was done, I one upped the millionaire on accident.
