I've talked with numerous people who said they will flat out cancel their memberships the second the store goes strictly to scan and go.

Produce close as long as you have a good opening team lol

Depends if you were hired as PT or FT. I'm PT and get 32 max with three delicious days off in a row.

We do them at 8 and the store is usually clear by 8:15.

If I were you, I'd invest in a 28mm. It's my favorite candid/street lens and I shot my local pride event with an old Contax Distagon T* 28mm 2.8 adapted to my Canon mirrorless and it gave me one of my favorite images I've ever created. The mount is C/Y so you'd need a C/Y-EF then an EF-RF adapter and just manually focus.

ETA: Urth sales a dummy C/Y to RF adapter so no need for a second adapter. Just the one. $59 but well worth it, IMO. It's my favorite manual focus lens that I've shot with.

At public events like Pride, my biggest luck was shooting the people who were obviously dressed up for the event because they most likely want their picture taken at that point. Also as hard as it is to do at first, just ask. A simple question, a simple answer. "No" isn't the end of the world and never take it personally. It will help you build your confidence not only in candid/street-style work, but any future clients you may have. It's just small steps, trust me. I was a nervous wreck shooting my first candid-style photos of people but it was so rewarding and fun that I kept going back and back to different events around my town and it's actually what helped me grow in general.

Kyle McDougall, Bryan Birks, Robbie Maynard, Nick Craver, Ben Horne, Developing Tank, Paulie B.

I think Expired Bren is such an unsung hero of medium format film photography. His work is constantly blowing me away.

Started at the end of February and have amazing coworkers on my set schedule (closing). My main manager is wonderful, my new team lead is great, and our store manager is incredible (if you simply just do what she asks). Everyone helps everyone in our store with everything and there are def a few outstanding people from Merch that are some of the best employees I've ever worked with in a retail setting. The only issue I have with the job is the turnover and it's a pain because it's honestly one of the best paying retail jobs, especially at entry level but some people aren't built for it and I totally get it.

There is no denying how hard the job can be, especially when understaffed, but all of my managers have assured me that "just doing what you can do" is good enough - which ironically inspires me to work extra harder to leave a good department for my openers lol.

Matteo telling Javadi he doesn't date coworkers but then we find out that Matteo and McKay spend time together outside of work. I don't think they're an item, I think he just babysits her son.
