I hope that if we have another opportunity as such we can show how important it was to us. I apologize for the behavior and I'm sure I can speak on everyone's behalf that it was not intended to be that way. Oh man…..we did appreciate our time while there Amelia!!!

How about a long-ish speech about fonts to make them behave?! I'll have them eating out of my hands. Who can resist the fascinating debate of serif versus san serif body text? Oh I know!

Being an editor and representing the Wren's Nest is an honor, not an entitlement, which it sounds as if they just don't get. They are there to learn a business - publishing- and that type of behavior before a sales meeting or customer visit would be just cause for firing someone in the corporate world. Or at the very least, would reflect poorly come review time (read that, as no raise, no good review, no good reference to try and find another job). Sorry, Amy. It sucks that you have to be a babysitter. Wow, what a great field trip so the bad behavior is very disappointing indeed!

The talk had been given and expectations laid out, which made this all the more disappointing -- especially since they were absolute perfection at Paste. I would by lying if I said your explanation hadn't gone through my head as well, Deb. Marshall and Deb, thanks.

In this case tell what you want to see. It disrespects you as well as them to behave in this fashion. You would hate to be the wicked witch of the west.
