And I bet they don't get a sudden "Aha!" experience from that which tells them why their wedding photographer wanted so damn much money to do it for them either.

Almost as sad are the people who bring in their wedding albums with 100
photos marked with post-it notes (wanting different sizes and crops, of
course), lay down a massive fricken pile of negatives, and expect the
clerk to match up each photo with its negative.  They get the most
surprised look on their faces when I gently let them know that we can't
really take a clerk out of commission for two days to do that.
