However, I don't care who paid for the ticket, or the badge, or the hotel room. Nobody is anybody else's property. There is nothing wrong with handing someone a business card and asking them to call you if they are interested in work. That applies to models, affiliate reps, whatever. If they are under contract then they are under contract and there are legal remedies should those contracts be breeched. But if there is no contract, no income guarantee, no understanding of exclusivity, than everyone has a right to do what is best for themselves.

My employees attend shows and walk the floor freely. I take very good care of the people who work for me so I am not concerned that they will jump ship but if someone wants to talk to them, talk away. As human beings, and adults, they are free to speak with whoever they want. If someone makes them a better offer, well good for them, they are free to take it.

Some of you think that simply because someone takes their clothes off for a living they are second class citizens. Pathetic.

There are so many in this business that are really clueless when it comes to any type of business skills/knowledge.

The stories I could tell.
