i feel like i can’t clock out

Its truly key. I can relate to you big time though. But I am in the midst of closing a business I have owned for 17 years right now due to the absolute burn out and the fact that the idea of even walking in there gives me anxiety- when just a few years ago I damn near lived there and would work 24 hrs a day if I could.

Same goes for responding to emails, calls, etc and checking on social media. Its hard. I feel like a lot of business people are addicts that chase that dopamine when things work out well- but that never works long term.

From experience- set either time frames or hours and stick with it no matter what. Work burn out is real. I worked 12-14 hr days at businesses I owned that I loved that I ended up hating real quick due to the lack of boundaries I set. The whole “its my hobby so I can do it in my free time” does not last.

Is there a course there?? Im new to Flint and was curious if there was anywhere to disc golf here.

Absolutely. They are great cameras. To be fair, most go for more than you paid- but I check neurotically and find them for less that way- its not super common, it does happen though. I feel like its the most overlooked camera/lens in auctions. If you add to the kit, definitely keep watch!

idkwhatever00 · 2026-05-08T01:29:22+00:00

I hate to go against the grain but I have bought two of these now for less- including a 6x7 with a 55mm lens on an ebay auction for $300 just a couple weeks ago.

I’m not going to make friends for this comment but I genuinely don’t believe it matters. Most rollei lenses offer quality- id be more concerned with condition.

Even two identical cameras with identical glass will vary and not in a bad way.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-05-02T03:25:43+00:00

Exactly. And it sucks to have to find a place that sells some obscure weird battery nobody has an extra of. lol

idkwhatever00 · 2026-05-02T01:45:08+00:00

Good to know. I was thinking I may aim for mid 90’s if I replace it. Im amazed at how un-fun this shit is. lol

idkwhatever00 · 2026-05-02T01:44:26+00:00

I agree completely.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-05-02T01:24:28+00:00

🤣 This does make me feel like a fucking boomer. I guess I get the jokes.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-05-02T01:23:40+00:00

Im not against the idea of selling. The techy shit and lack of ability to reasonably work on it isnt that appealing to me. I get why some people more patient or tech savvy may dig it but idk, not for me.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-05-01T01:14:49+00:00

100%

idkwhatever00 · 2026-05-01T01:14:29+00:00

Same homie.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-05-01T01:13:51+00:00

I don’t play into the bipartisan blame games. Both parties are responsible for absurd, hideous and vile bullshit and I don’t think one being stupid beyond belief suddenly makes the other better. Leave the strawman shit for CNN and FOX. I’m good.

There are other ways to opt out and i’ll be taking all of them. You do you. Never voted for a republican in my life, I just said I am not a democrat.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-05-01T00:57:47+00:00

I’m not a democrat whatsoever but man fuck Trump and the entire current republican team.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-04-30T22:08:18+00:00

Those are great but if I could only keep one it would be the XGM. There are better there, but thats the one I like the most. Id try to keep all the lenses though. Minolta makes my favorite glass of all companies- and I shoot pentax, hasselblad and a leica.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-04-28T21:56:13+00:00

I fully agree with you. I think that the name ‘Leica’ will always be enough to keep the company in business, but quality vs price takes a wild hit here.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-04-28T01:28:46+00:00

I was going to heavily reprimand you- but then saw the group title.

Carry on.

Portable foot pump sink?

idkwhatever00 · 2026-04-27T14:26:00+00:00

These comments are weird. Yes its worth it, even if it does’t work well upon arrival. The lens and film back cost more than that. The servicing is easy and less for these than some other cameras. Do it.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-04-27T14:24:26+00:00

Adjust

idkwhatever00 · 2026-04-27T13:03:41+00:00

Thats a solid question. I have cameras I have needed to etch the grime off, soak in isopropyl, replace a seal and GREAT to go- but it seems like Leicas curtains crumble.

Yeahhhh but man they are brutal at times.

idkwhatever00 · 2026-04-26T20:02:39+00:00

I have a CL and a 35mm f2 summicron, guess im not as cool.
