This is SO common in the veterinary field as well! Most vets never want to reveal that they are DVMs...the best possible response from a stranger is some long, TMI-type story about their step-uncle's neighbor's dog eating his ex-girlfriend's thong and having to get emergency surgery to remove it, the most common response is being asked to diagnose said dog's current belly rash from a grainy iPad picture, and the worst (but unfortunately not uncommon) response is a rant about how vets are greedy, money-hungry monsters because we can't do a $4,000 surgery for free (note: vets don't get funds from the gov't to cover costs when owners can't, they generally graduate with $200,000+ in debt from vet school alone, and starting annual salary for a DVM is $50,000-$80,000...we would have gone into another profession had we wanted money!)

And I said well other than encouraging him to drink water and stay out of the heat until EMS arrives there’s not too much I can do because I don’t have tools I need. And they were perplexed lol.

That said, I have experienced some of what was mentioned in the video.
