be your own best boss, this is the way to deal with most stuff.
let the "new guy" do his or her best to sell frames...
there may a lesson to be learned by you
or not.
sometimes I wonder if timbeframing is a bit like yoga, there's no start or finish... you just get on the path, and do yer best. Many novice frames are as good as experienced frames. If you're feeling burned maybe you need to start your own fire?
