I rather liked this one, which I found in the links on the right:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lde8C_kb ... re=related

Big hall, big hotel, $6K dress, but only $1,800 for two photographers? :lol:

*EDIT* I can certainly sympathize with you folks who shoot weddings, and get this sort of crap. Last year I was asked to shoot a large racing event for "photo credit", and routinely run into people who think that just making sure my name is on a commercially-used shot should be enough 'compensation' :roll:

I had a similar thing happen to me - where ESPN wanted photographs I shot of a woman's boxing match that I shot last year - but they were not willing to pay. I told them to stick it, and they went to one of the amateur photographers that was at the match, and stole their photos instead. A$$holes.

What? ESPN should be able to pay for photos.

How did they steal the other guy's photos? Did they just ask him to sign a release?

good lord, easily the lamest of all the teddy bear chats--did the "photographer" say anything that was not a rude, unjustified assumption? (maybe he did, i didn't waste time to watch it all 8) )

A better question would be if the 'client' actually answered a single direct question? ;)

she doesn't have to... and he doesn't have to take the job--i'm sure there's more food to be scraped off the bottom (which is where the insults unequivocally place him)

If you want to hire someone, it would be a good idea if you knew if he was even available on the day that you needed him. It all went downhill from there.

... and it was a JOKE :P

Meh, definitely not my kind of humor/cartoon but I get the point... I couldn't pt myself to watch the whole clip. It's like listening to someone screech their nails across a chalkboard to me. Reminded me of the old Dr.Sbaitso text-to-speech back in the old SoundBlaster days.
