prentiousness

[packhorse]

Is pretentiousness a sign of an inferiority complex?

[dot.hawkes]

possibly, but maybe it is just a sign that you are unhappy or unsuited to your situation and you have aspirations to inprove and advance, nowt wrong with ambition, as long as it isn't a jealous or envious motive.

Of course its not you oik.If you dont mind me mentioning it?

[dot.hawkes]

are you a pack horse on the penine way? just asking cos it is an interesting choice of covert ID

[whiffey]

Could you give some examples ? As it stands it's a bit too general.

[packhorse]

No, it isn't me (honestly) it is a bloke at work. To be more specific, he is in a fairly ordinary job, but when on the phone or outside work you would think that he was MD at ICI.
