This reminds me of an old friend I had at work.

She was in HR and looking to hire a new employee and she complained to me about how all the people applying weren't from the country and they weren't capable of doing the job because they didn't know how to behave...

At the end of her small rant I guess she realized I was one of those "outsiders" and then she said "oh but you're one of the good ones!"
