There's a fine line between them.

On the other end, there's also a fine line between "relaxed and confident" and "bored / uncaring / acts like he doesn't want to be here."

If that guy could read instead of playing the word parsing game, he'd understand. Overconfident officials with big personalities that do not have judgment commensurate with they way they try and project get slaughtered, and most of the time they are very unaware of it. It's called narcissism or megalomania. Walter Mitty Syndrome.
