On a Monday morning a staff meeting and every agent was given a p&s to photograph everything and anything pertaining to all of their insurance claims. Outsiders were banned! No if's and or buts! They were given a quick lesson about turning it on, keep the batteries charged and who was responsible for making the prints.... in office everything! A local shooter closed his store and went looking for a job as this outfit was a huge client for him, so he immediately went bust! :-( Story of our times and I'm so thankful I put my time in during the 50-60-70 -80's etc. ted
