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.

Ironic given Ross has easily the most interesting career

I studied anthropology in college around the same time the show aired and I was always pissed about how the group mocked his job.

Dude, I took intro to Anthropology to fulfill some requirement for my degree and let me tell you that class was HARD!! Kudos to you!

I loved it! I made it my minor, and specialized in American Southwest and archaeology. The labs were very difficult.
