A question for carl.

Hello old chum, just a quick enquiry if you don't mind. You
know when people come to get their photos processed... what
happens to them if they don't pick them up? Does it happen
often? Do they have to be chucked out after a certain length
of time? Is it possible for members of the public to acquire
them?

I guess that's 4 questions really.

I only ask because i'd like to base a wee project around
some "lost" photos, but i'm not too keen just to ring up the
photo shops in town and start hassling them. They might
think i'm weird.

there should be no problem as long as you don't mention the
cider bottles filled with piss.

Sadly i've had to abandon any hope of a Pissy Project.

There were "problems" in storage, shall we say.

What happens to them if they don't pick them up? We
file them away and afterr a cerrtain amount of time we rring
the perrson, then if they don't pick them up again we rring
them once morre.

Does it happen often? Yes, verry often, people arre
stupid.

Do they have to be chucked out after a certain length
of time?
Yes, but that time length varries, sometimes we
have picturres almost a yearr old, sometimes they get
collected and thrrown in the space of 3 months.

Is it possible for members of the public to acquire
them?
No not rreally :(

Bummer. Ah well, cheers anyway. I guess i could always apply
for a new job at a photo place and just start thieving the
ones that nobody claims, but that would be a bit mental.

you could try finding old photographs in antique stores and
markets.

you can especially find whole photoalbums at markets.

forr you and posted them, but they arre all barr coded and
I'd get caught.

Do you do an extra contact sheet if the photos are
funny/rude?

I guy I once knew who worked in a photo lab would make a
fair amount of cash selling snaps of celebs to the tabloids.

no, not even Trent Reznor, Marty McFly, Doc Brown orr the
Queen could acquirre photos that arren't theirrs. Unless
that is they could quote a name and matching phone numberr
frrom a packet in storrage.

you should totally take pictures of you butt, and slip them
into other people's orders.

If the photos arre rrude I just look forr the most grraphic
and embarrrrassing one and put it to the top.

If you ever get celeb photos, chicks drunk in bars with
their arms round Peter Andre or Rolf Harris. I can hook you
up with a place to sell them. If the celeb looks really
drunk or high you may not have to work for the next year or
so!!!

They are not known in Canada, I grew up in England.
Strangley those were the first celebs I could think of, I
don't know what a psycoanalyst would have to say about
that.
