Along with some of the commenters, I thought the under-the-bathroom-stall-door was urban legend...oh dear.
Precisely my thoughts.Read some and thought "duh, who would do that?"
It's all common sense. I can't even believe anyone would do the things she says not to do, but they must.
This is amusing, but does anyone know of a place where the stupid, unprofessional things agents do are listed?
Exactly. Part of me suspects that the people who need this sort of article probably won't be the ones reading it...
I'd add to that list, "Don't query until you've run your QL through the gauntlet, aka QLH." Doing so would probably make most (if not all) of those 'don'ts' moot.
Heck, maybe that s/b #1.
