How many sommelieres can a country possibly need?

There is no such thing as "just business". If you behave like an asshole in "professional situations" then you are an asshole, period.

If your general review of the restaurant you just visited is that it was less than satisfactory or even downright bad, why keep trying?

Being "hard to please" is not a positive personality trait. It is just an inability to enjoy what's good and discard what's bad.

Drinking more than a few "grand" wines at a single occation is a sign of a decadent culture and disrespect towards the winemaker and wine.

Being a sommelier: In order to please and amuse the upper class and the bourgeoisie we learn everything about what someone else created.
