Jim, I believe World was, is, and probably will be for a long time one of the better agencies when it comes to not ripping off the talent. The fees and percentages others charge are sometimes ridiculous, but form what I've heard you guys are generally pretty good, and in this buissness pretty good is about as good as it gets.

But seeing as how this INDUSTRY offers absolutely nothing in the way of any healthcare (multi billion dollar industry my ass) managers and agents paying for tests doesnt seem like too much to ask.

If a girl gets hurt on a shoot,(a torn ass, or injuered throat) who pays for that? ANswer, the girl herself the vast majority of the time. And sometimes those bills are more than what she got paid. This is a travesty and something should be dome. Perhaps OSHA will do something.
