Save the drama for your mama!

I just had the worst Wal-Mart experience ever. I never ever get good service there, but today was particularly bad. Wal-Mart is the closest place to my office to develop pictures so I submitted my grandparents wedding pictures through their site for 1 hour development so I could pick them up during my lunch hour. When I got there over 2 1/2 hours later, they said the pictures weren't ready, and I would have to wait an hour. I asked, "Didn't I submit them for 1 hour service?" And they confirmed that I did, but they hadn't noticed the order until 5 minutes earlier. Great!

After wandering around for awhile I went back to pick up my pictures, and just as I was paying for them, the girl at the counter asked to see my release from the professional photographer. I told her that I didn't have one, they weren't from a professional photographer, they were from old photos that my dad scanned and then we both digitally retouched them and both of the photos were over 50 year old. She said that she either needed a release or an original negative or I wouldn't get my pictures. I told her that there was no possible way I would ever be able to get those things so she turned around and shredded the pictures. SHE SHREDDED MY GRANDPARENTS' WEDDING PICTURES!!!!!! It was so sad!

I called Cord Camera and told them the whole story and they were totally nice and said that if they looked professional all I had to do is sign a release saying I won't use them professionally or sell them. They should be ready in about an hour.

Here they are for your enjoyment.
