everyone talks about the red flags after signing. I want the one in the email, before you ever walk in. mine: "we're looking for artists who are comfortable working for exposure while we build our brand." I read that four times thinking I'd misread it. I hadn't. didn't reply, which was the right call, and I still think about the two hours I spent on that cover letter. what line kills it for you? and I mean the specific sentence, not "unprofessional communication" in general. give me the actual wording so I know what to look for.
