The report stated theat the students had tested 19 different inks from different suppliers, and found a number of them to contain toxic substances.... that's it.

I hope not to hear that this report has caused any damage to your business. Seems that the media allways leaves out the important info on critical news, but has no problem telling us all the details of the recent billion sports games.

eh, the only part of the news i even pay attention to on a regular basis is the weather, and they have a whole channel just for that. 
my poor apprentice, nathan. He's 19, an avid church-goer, and so "innocent-minded" i almost pity him for all the shit we put him thru... almost.

Make it part of your policy.
Make a sign:
No loitering (other than paying clients) allowed.
I've seen shops that had this kind of thing up, and I think it went over just fine. It really must be a distraction when you have someone else to listen to and that may be distracting your client.
If you're going to get work, be a grown up - do it alone!
Hang in there.

Hometown blues, i guess, voted "most unique" senior year, and nothing has changed while i was away for 8 years. Came home, still no kindred spirits... not within an hour's drive.
