Truth be told it goes both ways. There are plenty of dismissive assholes on the other side of the counter. This is the main reason none of my vehicles or appliances will ever be touched by a "professional."

For the last 10 years I've had one foot in IT and the other in product design. IT is positively the worst culture in terms of being dismissive to the "ignorant masses" it serves.
I always liken it to looking in a mirror as whatever behaviour you express is usually reflected back.. as for IT, I don't know how to say it but agree with you.
