Mind the Measure

It seems that in the south, there is an un-written rule that requires everyone to be nice to our fellow citizens. Or maybe it is written. Not that agents aren't generally nice people, but we have a job to do. We need the best of the best for the best and we won't rest til it's right. What I'm trying to say is that it's necessary for agents to be mean at times. "No, you're actually not a size 2. Size DOES matter. You need to hit the gym more than once every two weeks. You CANNOT miss a fliping go-see! " Etc. We can't baby sit and stroke the eago of the average self-pitying model. But we're also not in the big apple or in Chi-town either where telling a drama queen where to shove it is kosher. So, what are we to do? Let's all toughin up a little. We shall not let a little criticism defeat us right?? Okay okay, a natural-born southern belle I am not, but I will be kinder than the love-to-hate Entourage character- Ari Gold to your face...just know it's for your own good if I'm not.
