It would have been cool to live in a time when people just documented their birthday parties, sports games and other mundane shit with film. At least I would see some moments of genuine warmth and humanity unroll before my eyes. Not this tumblerina shit.
You're not fucking special.

Reminds me of the anon who took snapps of fake body parts in a fridge and had the cops raid his place because of (rightfully) a freaked out photo lab employee.

They never implied that. They're ust having fun filmfagging, and provide you with an extra income.

If you lived by the time people shot mundane things on film, you'd be bagging for that 'nude' of 5/10 girl.

I would love to talk to an OG lab tech from like 20 years ago who dev'd film back in the day and ask about some of the shit they have seen lol I bet some of those guys got stories

>implying anyone believes your horseshit fable
Just do your fucking job and stop moaning about it you ungrateful millennial cunt.
I bet you're the type of person who judges someone's meal choice at a restaurant and does it behind their back.
I bet you've never had the balls big enough to approach a customer about their film, even less so giving advice and help.
You people make me sick and I hope you realise that your co-workers probably think you're a elitist faggot.
>>2858873
Dude I would fucking kill to have your job. Sure beats making fish and chips. Food service is the worst

The local Snappy Snaps type of place is advertising for staff and I was tempted to apply.
I realised you would spend all day showing people how to use the Kodak photo booth and explaining why their phone photo will look like shit blown up as a poster.
The highlight of the week would be a "free portrait shoot" of some brat in the corner of the shop and then the hard sell on the print packages.
I think I'll stick to working doing something I care very little about.
