I can't say I remember them but I've always wondered with the really
obnoxious knob jockeys - how many of them act like that in real life?

 
Likely all of them, at least at first.
 
Unlike usenet, real life assholeness carries with it the risk of getting
punched in the face repeatedly.
 
That tend to put a bit of a damper on the activity that online rebukes
never can.

I'm more thinking of those that act like it when they think they can get
away with it so a prime example is being an arsehole to people who work
in shops knowing they can't 'fight' back.

Until they find out the lowly employee is actually the owner and they
just got banned for life.

Don't ever insult a bartender, often they can be the owner.
