    First, the short answer to your question is yes, no, and sometimes. People tend to like and trust people who are most like them. An example of that is the good-old-boy network. It is also a very good way to establish rapport. If you feel that a person is talking differently from the way they normally speak, the question to ask is ‘in this particular situation, what is their benefit to doing that?’ Is there something they want from you? Are they trying to sell something? Or it could be that you may view them as high society, and have your own beliefs about how they present themselves, however, that’s not their view of themselves, and then don’t fit your expectation.
