In the work place, one of the things one needs to realize is the limitations placed on him or her by his employer. Wal~Mart is not interested in being a "pro" lab, the same way they are not interested in selling Armani suits. We are what we are, if that isn't what you want. go elsewhere. Enough people want what we are to make us the most successful retailer in the world. We add significantly to the bottom line profit of the company, which is where the rubber meets the road. I have worked for pro labs, I have operated my own pro lab. I choose to live where a pro lab is not a viable entity. I choose to live here because it is unlikley that some asshole will fly a plane into what passes for a tall building or poison my water or contaminate my local post office. If the price I pay for living somewhere that is unlikely to be fucked up by dipshits is to work for a 1 hour kiosk, I happily accept the price. My house is paid for, I have food on the table, my dogs love me and I get laid on a regular basis. I have no complaints. William Robb - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
