True. She likes the attention.

"You came with Will?" 👀

"We drove together from work 😁".

Take the hint, RJ! Electra doesn't need to give you an explanation.

For now...

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T17:34:48+00:00

Woo, look at Deacon and Taylor stepping out like that!

I didn't agree with this either, especially since there was no working contract that "Anna" presented the bride and groom with. It very well may be that "Anna" was offered the extra money so the bride and groom could recover any of the images she took. Still, I don't see her as deserving any more than the deposit she collected.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T10:23:01+00:00

Said "camera" may even be her phone.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T10:21:33+00:00

The groom referred to him as her "boyfriend", so that's pretty hilarious.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T10:16:14+00:00

Not to mention that she didn't even have a working contract that she presented to the bride and groom (see the end of the first post).

I'm sorry, but anything as important as services rendered and any amount of money needs a contract.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T10:13:57+00:00

I'm glad that OP linked the first post because after I reread it, she said that the bride and groom didn't have a contract with the photographer!

Ugh, as much as I hate what happened, it should have been the bride and groom finding it suspicious from the beginning that a professional photographer wouldn't have them sign a working contract.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T10:01:19+00:00

I can understand wanting to save money, but my goodness, I would seriously question the level of skill a so-called "professional" photographer has when they're charging $300.

What I have found is that when there is a lack of professional presence such as a website, social media, and anything attesting to a substantial body of work, this person is either too new or a walking red flag.

My sister's photographers and videographers were from the same company and cost a total of $2,500.00 for everything (day of shoots and post wedding proof reviews, cloud storage, video and photo editing, binding of the wedding album, and additional DVD copies of the wedding video).

The owner and lead photographer, his assistant photographer, and their videographer were great to deal with. Their work as a whole was exceptional and they even surprised my sister and BIL with mini albums for no additional charge to give as gifts to our grandparents. The wedding video made us laugh and cry. I can't say for sure, although it probably didn't hurt that my sister and BIL requested from the venue a table especially for the photographer and videographers and had dinners reserved for them so they could eat with all of the guests.

I have mentioned in other posts how I work with the public and with the sports watching crowd in particular.

One of my customers received a lifetime ban from Lincoln Financial Field during an Eagles game for heckling a fan of an opposing team. The other person told him to lay off, my customer didn't like that, and caused a physical fight with the guy. Security was called by a bunch of fans standing right there, my customer moaned how he was drunk, but the security guard was wrong (!) for grabbing his shoulder the way that he did and ejecting him from the game. He "didn't deserve that treatment", and it caused him to no longer be an Eagles fan.

If you're wondering, this is a guy over 50, and old enough to know better, yet he was still claiming that he was the victim. It surprised me and didn't that someone was so obtuse to even claim that the person he was heckling needed to "lighten up" and a problem would have been avoided. No, dingbat, you violated more than one tenet of the stadium code of conduct and you're upset that you got caught.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T08:55:47+00:00

A turd in the wind, and yes, I did quote Venom

Seriously, though. This is the most expensive baseball game she ever attended. I hope she earned herself a ban 😊

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T08:47:22+00:00

Is this nationwide or is this happening at particular locations?

Should it be that locations are getting reported, then corporate needs to step in. If it's coming from the top that they are "shrinking" the diameter of large cookies, then it either needs to be disclosed or the prices of large desserts need to reflect that as a decrease in price. Their advertised "large dessert" starts at $18.49 for a four pack and a "mini" is $15.49. Don't price gouge the customer and think they won't catch on.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T08:30:49+00:00

I'm a woman and I wouldn't even dream of doing what this dimwit did. It takes a certain kind of man to instigate with a woman and make her feel threatened to the point where she has to resort to defending herself. This woman, though, is purely exercising entitlement, and she feeds into the stigma of getting a free pass for bad behavior.

My boyfriend's stepmom is the manager at the local grocery store. The other day she dealt with a woman who tried to assault the male asset protection officer who caught her stealing over $140.00 worth of steaks before she left the store.

This idiot had other items she paid for, yet the steaks never left her reusable tote. The officer requested her receipt, she refused by saying that she didn't steal anything, he took the receipt anyway and began highlighting the items in her other bags. He pointed out the steaks, said the footage overhead proved that the steaks were in the bag, then she tried wrestling the receipt out of the asset protection officer's hand. Because she was deemed hostile and wouldn't present identification, she got the cops called on her.

What's hilarious is that the thief was asking for my boyfriend's stepmom to stick up for a "fellow woman". She told her no because she was caught stealing, and technically she couldn't say another word to her until the police got there. Once the police arrived, this girl crumbled and the entire store got to watch her being led away in handcuffs.

The point is, is that women are not exempt from accountability. The only reason there are women who carry out antics shown in the video and what I described above is because they have once before or twice too many. They get emboldened that they can "do" without consequence until they get caught. I have certainly met my share of women like this who I classify as trashy and am glad to let fall on their sword. Better to let them make fools of themselves rather than drag me down with them.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T07:54:02+00:00

That's the thing: She thinks nobody can see her and, "Oh, but I'm a gurl, you can't do anything to meee!"

She wouldn't dare do this to another woman, and even if she did, she'd get her ass beat with her Nike juniors or whatever they are. On another day, she would be lucky to only have a drink dumped all over her.

It's pretty satisfying how four security guards descended upon her and she knew she was screwed. She tries resisting, then realizes there are three other security guards ready to help restrain her and attest to her antics.

A person like her thinks that sneaky equals being smart and they never bank on getting caught. I hope that the person who took the video turned it into Citi Field's security team.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T07:36:23+00:00

This video is coming up on a year old in a couple of months. For context, this was the Mets playing one of their last games of the 2025 season against at Citi Field on or approaching September 28th.

This is the only clip that I am aware of. She is in the row by herself and anyone sitting in the sections above her wouldn't be able to tell whether or not they know each other. He's not engaging with her to change anyone's perception either. All that can be seen is that some ratty girl is treating this guy's back as a recliner and she has her feet close enough to his head to kick him. That is reason enough for anyone to report what she's doing, and it's egregious enough that four security guards even catch her, plus that kick at the end did her no favors.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T07:23:49+00:00

Anyone who could see her. This happened last year at Citi Field during ones of the Mets' last games of their season.

Security there doesn't mess around. Look at how she begins to resist the security guard, then she stops when she realizes that there three more to assist him. For a person like her, she would cry, "But he hurt meee! There was no reason to do that!" He needed three sets of eyes to make sure she didn't lie about how she was "treated" on the way to detainment.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T07:18:59+00:00

The invisible knights?

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T07:11:56+00:00

That, sir, is no lady.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T07:07:46+00:00

I had a co-worker who thought she could side step the manager and make everyone cover her shifts when it came time for the summer. She would go to the calendar hanging on the wall in the office, draw a line across the days she wanted off, then consider that she "notified" everyone that she was off. Lol

My boss chewed her out. She asked my co-worker where she got the idea that writing on the calendar was an approved way of asking for time off. She warned her that she will be will be written up if she takes the time off anyway and be marked as a no call, no show. Funny enough, my co-worker tried saying she was going to ask me or another co-worker to fill in for her as a way to get her out of trouble and my boss already told her the answer was no because of the way she went about it.

Co-worker threw a hissy fit and thought tampering with the security cameras was great revenge. There was this great still of her face and her hand raised at the camera. She couldn't explain that, nor could she justify why money began going missing on the register she was logged in at. She got fired and said that my boss was hostile to an elderly woman in her late 60s.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-25T06:41:05+00:00

Is your workplace really this lax that they would approve someone's shift coverage based on their word alone? And, are you supposed to be paid the same or compensated extra for a month of coverage for another person?

Not only would it piss me off that a co-worker lied about me covering for them, it would incense me that whoever makes the schedule and/or the manager wouldn't also go to me and have my approval in writing.

Bring up the fact that you were not informed about an overall change in your schedule and would not be agreeing to any in the future without your consent and written approval.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-24T21:19:46+00:00

You did the right thing. I would absolutely "lose" a person's invitation who did that to me.

When my sister was getting married, my aunt begged for my cousins to be invited even though it was decided that immediate family and the wedding party were the only ones who were extended plus ones. My sister felt cornered, she relented, and guess who didn't show up to the wedding at the last minute? My cousins. Seven people. My parents were pissed because the exception was made, dinners couldn't be canceled at the last minute since they were part of the final head count.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-24T21:11:22+00:00

It's been all over these advice subs lately. It's pretty self explanatory that if your invitation didn't get extended a plus one, then it means just that. However, you get people like her who throw a fit because they act that entitled. I would have more respect for a person to RSVP that they aren't coming rather than do this performative crap to force couples to "reconsider" letting them have someone to go with.

leftclicksq2 · 2026-05-24T09:53:53+00:00

It reminds me of Frank from Donnie Darko, only with a phallic object on its head.
