I suspect that some of the “rambling pros” who go on and on about issues in their field, but unrelated to what they are doing right now, probably don’t even remember what they said later. They just ramble.
I have never quite figured out how the ones who gossip about their current clients manage to stay in business. But maybe the clients don’t hear about it, or don’t care. Or maybe they do get fired by some who find out, and I wouldn’t know.
The ones who tell big stories about clients they haven’t dealt with in years, who may not even still be in horses, can be kind of interesting. If it is interesting.
Of course the ramblers are probably telling people about me, too, since they seem to talk about everyone. I don’t know what, but as long as they didn’t mention me by name, I probably wouldn’t care.
