facing off with arrogent people....
I was at work this morning and the people in the house were getting ready to go about their daily schedule ( I suppose), the son was pounding away on a grand piano and the father walked in and said something to the nature of practice makes perfect and it needs to be done.... the kid said something about practice ( didnt catch it ) and the father then said if you dont practice you will end up like the flunky in the kitchen installing cabinets.... unfortunately I heard that.... ( I may loose my job on this one but ...) I turned around and said " without people like me who build your pianos, your musical talents and skills would be for naught, you need us to do what you have a talent for..... " the dad was obviously floored by my comment and once he realized just what I said and sunk in.... he probably had an epiphany about the skills of "flunkies"....
My first thought, too!
