Yes I can tell you I have actually come across someone who knitted who sniffed with contempt at crocheting. I couldn't stop laughing and asking her if she was serious (which she was). I have and do come across this type in the art world all the time, art snobs, elitists. I just smile and say thank goodness I am a jafa.jafabrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04490900607853203086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678865064583539852.post-86845276606182219032008-02-23T07:33:00.000-08:002008-02-23T07:33:00.000-08:00I guess being judgemental is part of human nature....I guess being judgemental is part of human nature...the need to see ourselves as somehow better or more accomplished or whatever than others. <BR/><BR/>I'm glad you're Switzerland.Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15130321823549477784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678865064583539852.post-53284684204315791152008-02-22T21:53:00.000-08:002008-02-22T21:53:00.000-08:00I love telling people that I am a CEO of Childhood...I love telling people that I am a CEO of Childhood Development, CFO of the Bank of Malone, Chef, Certified Driver, Therapist, Teacher, Doctor, Nurse- everything! And I get paid with lots of love, no paycheck. I've done both and this job is better. Actually, it's not a job it is an adventure.
