Melannie, You are helping to shape their future career success via their development in the behavior and social conduct arena. I think this is a very valuable service you are offering. If the students don't have the ability to communicate clearly and present themselves as professionals they are not going to be successful in their career areas. The more you can help them in this area the better. Also, you are not being mean you are just showing them what the expectations are going to be when they are out working so keep up the effort.
