Your Honor, my client did nothing wrong! He simply voiced a legitimate concern about his girlfriend's career. Is he not allowed to care about her future? She's the one who needs a reality check. 'Acting her wage' is nothing but a self-sabotaging excuse for laziness!
Oh, please! He's not 'simply voicing concern.' He's condescending and dismissive of her feelings. She's frustrated, and instead of offering support, he lectures her about 'long-term earning potential.' Does he think she hasn't considered that? He's more worried about her career than her well-being!
Both of you, sit down and shut up! He's right to be concerned about her career. 'Acting your wage' is a loser mentality. But he's also a tone-deaf jerk for lecturing her when she's already down. She needs support, not a career seminar. And she needs to grow up and realize her actions have consequences.
