People Who Love P&C

I just wanted to say that your website thus far is so cute (love the colors and name!), and I can't wait until my first newsletter. I am a beginning interior designer.... still on the job hunt so I hope that your website will be helpful in finding great places to work. Best of luck!

This section serves to expand your regular vocabulary. What separates the men from the boys (or the women from the girls, if you want to equalize things) is v o c a b u l a r y. We cannot stress this point enough. People who have a larger vocabulary have been shown to make more money and get promoted more often.

Term Definition
caveat emptor

(pronounced KA-vee-ott EMP-ter)

A Latin term for a doctrine of commerce, namely that a consumer who buys something without a warranty assumes the risk. Let the buyer beware.

Example: When our client bought two cheap Persian rugs from a disreputable vendor, against our recommendation, we threw up our hands and said to him, “Caveat emptor, my friend. Don’t be surprised if those fall apart in a year.” (said tactfully, of course)
