In the interests of being succinct Helen I quoted mikes slick and rather feckless remark, leaving the reader to extrapolate the term "customers" to means that everyone is a legitimate critic and for mike to indulge himself as he has done, falls squarely into the same realm as that which he apparently finds so tiresome.
I have the greatest respect for teachers who can say and do exactly what is needed to communicate with a struggling student.
I think it's time you found another paddock to play in for a while mike rather than run the risk of becoming a bore.
