awww, guest #1 - Don't be upset. It may not have been anything personal, he may have just been having a bad day, or was really busy, or misunderstood your intentions.
And if he is truly that crochety - then screw him. Maybe he's a dinosaur from a more pretentious era who needs to be weeded out.

I just blogged about one of his reports. It's too bad he came across as a jerk, people should not behave in such a way (no matter who you may be employed by). That's always disheartening to hear. But you know what I've learned through out the years? You better be nice to everyone because you never know who could be your boss in the future, right? Keep doing what you do FIT student.

i am currently a student at FIT and was volunteering at the twinkle show this morning. after the show i decided to pick up the daily, and spotted bill cunningham. i decided to approach him after he had finished taking photos of the carolina herrera show on the tv screens (why was he not at the show and what was the point of taking pictures of the tv screens when it will be on style.com) in the main lobby. i was quickly dismissed with the slight wave of his hand which was then followed up with a look up and down as he walked away. i am severely heartbroken. now, i can never read or watch his contributions to the ny times style section without cringing and recalling how i was dismissed by what seemed to be grouchy old man. sigh... it smarts when people you respect end up being not so wonderful after all....
