On the one hand, it seems obvious that they would, to ensure that the digitisation worked. On the other hand, they’d probably get through 1 customer per month if they did that. So either they just dump the material to a file and send it, or they check every 10 minutes or so and watch a few seconds, but no more than that. Does that sound about right? 🤔

I have some stuff from 30+ years ago I’d like digitised, but I don’t know how I feel about a stranger watching 9-year old me be disproportionately excited to the point of tears about my Christmas gift of a life-size cardboard cutout of Wesley Snipes that my dad almost certainly stole from the video rental store. Some memories should stay memories.

    we did photo printing. people asked me to print the craziest shit but I’d forget about them the next day. so my advice would be to go to a very busy place

      I’ve read stories about exhibitionists who would take a ton of naked pictures of themself and send them in to get developed, just to get off on the idea of someone at the photo shop seeing them. I’m sure you’ve seen some shit.

        I wasn’t the one developing them but yeah sexual harassment is rampant. both physical and mental. that’s just part of retail, you’re transformed into a sexual object for the customer and more powerful colleagues/bosses to devour.

        I had this when I worked in a photo place, he would wait for my days off so one of the girls ended up printing it. In the end all of his same day orders were refused so that I would have to look at them instead, we never saw him again

          what a despicable maggot. sounds like he stopped getting off on it once someone he saw as human got involved

      That’s a great idea, DDoS their brains to the point where they zone out 😆
