Your helper might not be that big man signing off contracts, might be that his secretary; he definitely knows which contract his boss might pick. Your helper might not be that policeman you think you know, that street urchin could shield you from harm some day. Whatever and whoever you think you are, your helper might definitely not be the high and mighty, he might be that cook who knows exactly what his bosses needs and definitely how to approach him. Be kind and welcoming to people no matter how above you are than them, you never can tell you might just be neglecting your helper.
