Nowt to do with the pathological ineptitude of the Metro management, then?[/quote]
A very big healthy dose of pathological ineptitude, right the way through the whole managerial heirarchy. What is the point of trying to be the last lab standing in marketplace like digital photography. This coupled with taking over a terribly run company in the same industry that wasn't going anywhere meant I had to get out. I started to loathe the job I used to love.
Whilst Bill is right there will always be a need to collect & deliver props and large/mounted prints this doesn't count for all the location work that goes on, which is/was a fair sized portion of the market.
Anyway this is all chat for other forums......
I loved working as a courier at Metro (I enjoyed it at Hornets but wasn't there for long), the summers I worked were fantastic, the winters we less so but still thoroughly enjoyable.
