I was at my sister in law's the other night and a friend of hers called in to see her.
This girl had a Chloe bag with her and was selling them(copies) I hadn't met her before and my sil introduced me and said 'Rachael has a lot of women clients that would probably love them.' She ask why, and sil says Rachael "does" nails. She goes ' awww do you do nails too? Like Lucy?' (sil jumped on bandwagon, did one day course when she saw what I was earning and has done one client since she did her "course" 2 years ago.
I have been a qualified (properly) and a working nail tech for eight years and in my opinion have been sucessful and am proud of my career. Why then do I get really defensive when a complete stranger comes out with some patronising comment like that?
I should be used to it by now!
I've also had...
So...you can earn a living from nails can you?
Awww your job is so cute.
