Maybe I shouldn’t admit this–but, for most of us, covering the agency world is like the proverbial blind man feeling the toe of the elephant and having to guess its shape. We’re the waifs watching the party from the street. We peak through the blinds and see people dancing and (dimly) hear the music. Once in a great while, one of us actually gets invited in. Then, invariably, the reverse happens: We become co-opted and join the conspiracy of silence on what hell agency life really is.
