I bet I heard "she wants to better herself" at least three times. Each time I had a vision of Willie E. Gary smiling beside Crystal, Mary, Travis, Shirley, and Jackie. I think they all want to better themselves.

Better herself equates to getting a better paying cliental....like the Duke boys. Has she EVER had a real job??

There's no normal history on her...No old grammar/high school teachers, bosses. Just no one except her parents and their interest is probably more toward the grandchildren.

[Jane Austen]

Surely "wants to better oneself" applies to at least 99.5% of the populations.
