The only time anyone sought intervention by one of the guys working the booth was our spokesmodel who was only 16; the jerk got bored real fast talking with some guy.Folks who were at other booth sometimes got enamored with a spokesmodel.  A writer for a game company was penning poetry to one of our spokesmodels, which would have been okay, but he was slipping it under the door of her hotel room every day.  That creeped her her out.  Our con director wrote a song for the male employees when we were going to ComDex in Las Vegas; one line in the chorus went:"The spokesmodels are all married and not interested in us, not interested in us!"It was accurate.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />  I think we were better behaved than we might have been otherwise, thanks to her.</blockquote>
