Car crash television - Mary queen of shops
Normally I avoid reality TV, because I find the car-crash tv cringing.
But I caught one of these Mary Queen of Shops last season - enough to make me watch the first episode this season.
She's trying to turn around a big-lady shop in Ascot. (Ascot is rich and comfortable - it's ideal for a big-lady boutique.)
Dear Lord.
The (skinny) shop owner doesn't like fat women. She thinks they're misshapen.
And on top of that - she doesn't read fashion magazines.
I'm hardly a fashion icon. But for the love of little green apples, even I know that if you don't follow the business literature, and you don't like the people you work with...go find another job!
buttongirl, you'd be on the warpath! :-) You'd have to hear it to believe it.
