Last month I was paid to teach another client how to edit their web content. Too many similar stories to tell. I've always told clients that I'm here to "help" them achieve their goals. My generous spirit has now become a PR nightmare. In the day's of drawing boards and 4x5 camera work such a notion of "teaching" how to do our work would not have been possible. ;~( Regards, George Lottermoser george at imagist.com http://www.imagist.com http://www.imagist.com/blog http://www.linkedin.com/in/imagist On Dec 14, 2009, at 4:27 PM, Sonny Carter wrote: > On Mon, Dec 14, 2009 at 3:49 PM, George Lottermoser > <imagist3 at mac.com>wrote: > >> a race to the bottom >> bet I beat most of you there. > > > One month the salesmen at a major New Orleans Real Estate Firm > found p&S > cameras and minilabs and the next month I lost eighty location > shoots a > month.
