Hmmmm...New Career????


Recently, I ordered some pictures from my local Walmart. The next day, I received a phone call from the manager of the Photo Department. He informed me that because some of my photos appeared to be professionally done, I would need to sign a release in order to purchase them.

When I arrived in the Photo Department, he went on further to say that he was "allowing" me to pick up my photos with a release "this" time, however, in the future if he was not there and I ordered them "the girls" would most likely REFUSE to print my photos!!!! WHAAAAAT??? "So," I said "in order to have my photos printed by Walmart, they need to be crappy?" He laughed nervously and went on and on about he was only protecting his job, etc., etc. He then suggested that I have some business cards printed up and leave one on file with them. I said "What are they supposed to say 'Mom who takes pictures'?"

At first I was peeved to say the least. Then I thought about it and wondered if this was perhaps a greater power at work here, forcing me into making a step toward some new path in my life. Hmmmmmm. I wonder....... I got 100 business cards a couple of days ago. =)
