What I'm driving at is -- get over it! There will always be people who react to you for stupid external reasons. If it prevents you from getting a job, keep good records and lodge the appropriate civil suit. Otherwise, write off people who treat you superficially and move on to those who don't. Life is too rich to wallow in self-pity, however well its seems justified.
