Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?

probably trying to acquire only a portion of the business so they can stick the rump Yahoo with all of the liability for the breaches

the self congratulation that musta inspired the mental moment of "lemme just pose on a yoga ball in a skirt while wearing pumps with curb appeal yeah this is a good idea"

the lofty ambitions of success that musta been floating through that mind

sometime before or after she ordered that stack of nearly self-published books about herself to give to her people or whatever




she still rich as hell tho while I'm broke as gently caress. shoulda gone to business school and/or worn high heels in some conference rooms. the Man run world is so skeezy that both those ideas mighta gotten me places. argh!
