Just say what you mean

I quite liked the "Maartin are you an Aardvark?"

That's a classic, should become one of the great put down lines.

Since when has anyone been FORCED to use an agent?

I hate agents as much as anyone (especially DA!) but if they find me a gig with more money then they are my BFF.

[woohoo]

Agents are just trying to earn a dime like the rest of us, they just have lower standards.

Speak for your self, I have really low standards.
