Donna rang me today from her car, while I was trying to concentrate on some cash flow projections, to tell me she’s quitting her arts degree as she won’t have to pay anything if she quits now. Hopefully, that will mean there won’t be any more of her pretentious emails. Instead, she’s going to do a six-week course on astrology and healing crystals. She says she can be far more useful to others that way and, also, she thinks it will mean her employment prospects will be better. Sadly, I think she may be right. She also says she’s thinking of having electrocution lessons to improve the way she speaks. Well, good luck with that, Donna.
It’s such a pretentious word, isn’t it, pretentious?
