Re: Wine snobbery
I'm reminded of a point in my first job in the transport industry. The weather was attrocious and the overnight lorry from Maidstone which usually arrived about 7 am didn't get in until 4 pm. A chap had been ringing all day desparate to get hold of a case a wine that was on it. As soon as the lorry arrived he rushed over to collect it but when I went to pick it up, it slipped out of my hands which were freezing. He had an apoplectic fit yelling at me about how much the wine had cost. Fortunately the boss took my side saying it was just an unfortunate accident.
