How many of them used the service? How many had already done the research, asked for specific items then asked to pay? > wanted to punch them in the face. I could understand Joe Shmoe needing a > discount, but Daddy Warbucks? No, sir. So what was your social policy? Did you offer Joe Shmoe a discount if they were too shy to ask? Were you asking to see the payslip of people asking for a discount? How could you tell? And was your policy consistent with the shop's? I send my films to be developed at the other side of the country. It appears to be a small lab, but it's not local. I chose them because they have Fuji equipment and paper, but I would choose a mail-order house anyway, as I don't need to take the film there nor pick it up, a service that my local labs do not provide (actually someone tried to charge me more for the privilege). There are reasons for everything. I am conscious to shop from the little shops, but I won't take local tat because it's local. YMMV.
