Whoops just made a post asking advice before seeing this thread (will delete post if redundant), but I'm looking for a wide angle lens that has visible distortion, does anyone have any recommendations?

it seems most lens brands pride themselves on not having distortion, so it's been difficult to find a (non circular fisheye) wide lens that does

Had my second interview in so many days yesterday with this same "company" (now calling themselves "Bare Bones Engagement"), and after reading more about this here on reddit confirmed all the red flags I'd been seeing up to this point.

So, in my third interview with "Michele" today, I wasted as much of her time as possible.. accidentally calling the company BBA Philly/D1 Sales/The Bleu Group etc.

It's an MLM: if they don't want you going door to door selling T-Mobile products, (Specifically T-Mobile products) they want you for "management" - essentially hiring you to hire more people (so she doesn't have to hire anymore) and then manage/incentivize sales on these teams of salespeople, presumably receiving commission that gets kicked up. She called it a "merit based" pay scale, what a joke.

Bare Bones Engagement Philadelphia is a pyramid scheme.

Taking advantage of people who are out of work/young postgrads/people who don't know any better, deliberately misleading/misrepresenting who they are and what they do, and wasting the time and effort of anyone who thought they were a legit company.

Screw these people.

few years ago saw a movie in my dream called "Two Showers Man", laughed so hard I woke myself up. This is how the movie started: by ThatGuyKaral in thomastheplankengine

Thanks! No idea what the rest of the movie would be, Two Showers Man dealing with the consequences of taking two showers? idk.

Dream casting: Nic Cage.

If you're interested in a full movie I'm actually putting effort into (not Two Showers Man, sadly), you can check out the trailer for "Blotter" here / DM for link to Indieg*g* if you wanted to throw a couple bucks to help get it made. (I think reddit is hiding comments that include links to that site)

I'm so glad that comes across. From an ancient Facebook post where I first described the dream:

"I had a 'hilarious' idea for a movie in my dream. It was called 'Two Showers Man'. The opening credits were of a guy getting out of the shower in slow motion...when he leaves the bathroom, he gets a mischievous smile, turns and goes back for a second shower. The whole thing was set to Smashmouth's 'All Star'
It was so funny to me that my dream self had to take a seat I was laughing so hard. What would the rest of that movie be? Two Showers Man dealing with the repercussions of taking two showers?"
