    I actually “met” Thiel once. I was working for a limo company and we picked him and his luggage up. He booked 2 limos, one for himself, one for his luggage. I was driving the luggage car. We picked him up on the Tarmac at the private Jetway. He was walking towards me, and I greeted him with my hand out and said something along the lines of pleasure to meet you Mr Thiel, I’ll be getting the luggage today, your driver is over there. He walked past my outstretched hand and didn’t even acknowledge me. Then when they unloaded his “luggage” it was literally a single backpack. The guy ordered a whole separate car "probably $500+) to avoid the hassle of carrying a backpack 90’ from the private jet to the limo. When I arrived at his home to drop off the “luggage” I was told I couldn’t go in the front and had to use the service entrance. Guy seemed like a cunt then and still does today.
