They see this and it fits a pattern and so they are fairly skeptical.
Those responses usually upset me, because I feel that my experiences are being devalued. I read the comments and I compare them to my life of the past five and half years and they just aren't the same. It can be hurtful to have casual snide remarks made when you know that the people you work with are kind, thoughtful, intelligent, hard-working humans through and through.
But I also know that other people have had bad experiences and what they hear sounds like other things they've heard from shitty managers and colleagues, so they're cynical. If I talk down to them then I am devaluing their experiences. So I try not to, even though my personal nature is to be an arrogant wanker.
