Sharon's stories remind me, not of any interviews I have had, but of a lunch
with a rep from an agency. At the time we had two writers from his agency
working for us. He called and invited me and the writer I was supervising
out for lunch. The other (female) writer from his agency warned me that he
would take
me to lunch at a place that had a lingerie show. I could hardly believe it,
but
that's exactly what he did. 

I pretended to act like I didn't expect it, and asked, "What are all these
women
doing running around in their underwear?" He acted embarrassed and claimed
that he didn't know about it. Since I knew that was a lie, I said, "Well, I
think
it's really rude." I couldn't imagine what kind of rep would think it was
appropriate
to take a female client to a lingerie show! Even the male writer was
embarrassed!
