This is a copy of the letter I sent to
I worked my last day as a talent scout for Wilhelmina Scouting Network today. I just finished my second week with the company, and today was about as bad a day as it comes. I had heard something about a Dateline report when I first started, but it was pretty easy to dismiss it as the kind of standard news that often surrounds large successful companies. I figured that a couple of talent scouts had abused their positions (or something to that effect) and didn't investigate any further. It wasn't until today that I decided to open my eyes. I'll share with you my adventures today.
I live in upstate New York, and every year they have a very popular Renaissance Faire in Sterling, complete with armored jousts, acrobats, and axe-throwing. I went with several of my close friends (as it is something of an annual tradition), and I had told my scout manager that I would be going. He told me it would be a great place to scout (and he's right because it's always teeming with people). Furthermore, he said he used to work there, was friends with the manager, that he had talked to said manager, and that it was perfectly acceptable to scout there. What could possibly go wrong?
