Each model should devise their own "emotional tricks" to distance themselves from taking rejection personally. Everyone wants to be liked, but by being an "aesthetic laborer"...it exposes the model's body and mind to unpleasant comments sometimes.
Without the ability to control what the client is looking for, the model tries to dis-engage when they don't get the booking. Commonly, models can obsess about little, negative comments that clients and bookers say, and it will continue to affect them despite the fact that the comment may not have been meant to be "taken" personally.
Although, it can sometimes be wrongly assumed by the industry that because they are "aesthetic laborers/models" that they can just be rude to them...that the model is something that is not as important as "the job". There are just so many models, and sometimes clients start to get really picky "out-loud in front of the model". That's not necessary, nor professional, but the model hears it sometimes.
Models can find themselves at the bottom of the food chain putting their careers and self-esteem at rock bottom in comparison to some "other" luckier models. Not all models are living the glamorous life...and even those that have it pretty good in their career will someday have to face a transition.
