The other day I did something that could get me in a lot of trouble. This guy and his girlfriend came in and dropped of some film. She didnt want to leave it for one hour, he did. The way she was acting I knew there were nudes on the roll. Im pretty good at picking the people out that will have interesting photos.
Anyway, I print the film. And like I suspected there were several photos of her naked. The problem was, she clearly wasnt to down with posing. She looked like a deer in the headlights. When I looked at them I could practically hear the guy saying, If you love me youll do it.
So I destroyed the photos and negs of her nudes. It was a judgment call. Ive never destroyed anything before. In this case it seems like the right thing to do.
They came back and he was started looking through the photos at the counter. Never mind the fact that she was trying to get him to wait until they got back to the car. He said that there were pictures missing. I said that there were some images that I deemed unfit to print. I tossed in something about federal law and obscene photos. He said it was all her idea. I said yeah right, you should really learn to respect your girl friend. He said he wanted talk to the manger, I said I am the manager. He left, she was happy.
Nothing will come of most likely. I think he was freaked out enough to let it drop.
I made the right call. Hell with it if he bitches. He was the kind of guy who would have showed them to his buddies. Ill take the heat if it comes.
