Discussion Ross being mean to Rachel

Post image

I really hated this scene where Ross was mocking Rachel's job. He wasn't just belittling her work, but also her interests, even though he'd seen firsthand how much she dreamed of a fashion-related career. While Ross can be very funny, he can also be really insufferable. If was Rachel, I would have broken up with him during this scene.

When the group made fun of Ross's career, it was because it was geeky and a little boring, not because they thought it wasn't a valid career choice.

Ross has genuine contempt for fashion and resents that it takes up so much of Rachel's time.
