Ms. Volkau...

Thanks for your honesty.

To tell you the truth, young Mr. Collie's appearance on the site provided some of us with a bit of light entertainment and diversion.

I'm figuring that one purpose of an internship is to give young people a chance to experience real-world business processes and, perhaps, to make a few mistakes and learn from them. In this case, he got lessons that a classroom couldn't impart.

The kid showed some initiative, at least. If you haven't run him off yet, please have him send me his resume.
