Are you saying.. "* I’m just kidding of course. They’re not idiots, but it makes it sound much better."

so that you can trick the "idiots" into thinking they aren't idiots, and thus continue to pay you?

I actually work for people who I consider to be good friends. It's just something I tell people of how this industry works and why it's an awesome job.
I figured as much, most of us do. Nothing like a portable skill set in high demand.
