Aiming High

[Waxing_Gibbous (Peter)]

I picked up my wife at work today (she's a teacher now) and got yacking to one of her year 9s. After assuring him that being an IT contractor was neither lucrative nor exciting, I asked him what he wanted to be...

"I want to be a Barrister!"
"Cool. I get into lots of trouble, I might call you one day."
"Hunh?"
"Never mind. Why do you want to be a Barrister?"
"I can make the perfect leaf!"
"Hunh?"
"You know. On top of a latte - one of those leafs. I'm gonna be a great Barrister"!!

Oh well.....

Oh dear.

High expectations of himself

Oh, I don't know - a good barista is worth going back to. Surely you appreciate an artist's skill?
