Yes, even back in school/College and at any new job I've ever had, in the first few weeks when I'm new I always get asked 3 things:
1. How old am I. I look like I'm in my early 20's, people are shocked when they hear how old I am. For some reason people think I'm fresh out of College or something. It's probably because I'm also rather short.
2. What nationality am I? If I say, "white" they say, "What else?" I say, "American" and they still say, "Where are you from then?"
WTF. Can't anyone just be American these days? It probably doesn't help that most of my co-workers usually *aren't* white, so they're probably curious when they see a white guy in a job what they are.
