soundofsilver Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 they followed me on twitter and asked me to follow them and sent me a DM. theyre gonna credit me and also tag me when they announce the winner of the contest. better than being ignored i guess tell them to give you some tickets it happens every now and then with my photog friend. if they don't compensate him, he forces them to take it down @jhulud - this will be the norm for a while.

I almost guarantee it went something like this: Live Nation Marketing Manager: "Hey designer, we need a promo banner in 7 sizes for this giveaway, information is in the brief." Designer: "Here you go." Live Nation Marketing Manager: "Looks good but can we make the call to action and logo bigger." Designer: "Sure, here you go." Live Nation Marketing Manager: "We also want a picture of the prizes." Designer: "Do we have a picture of the prizes?" Live Nation Marketing Manager: "No." Designer: "Ah fuck. Fine." <googles photos> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abovetheearth Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 i did a design for a hair salon/boutique. there were two owners, each to pay their allotted amount. the other half never paid, so i waited it out..i was generous as i let it go 3 months. then i sent a cease and desist letter from my lawyer friend who loves sending out nasty letters. boy that sign came down in half an hour....never did see that money.

Guest Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Why does that happen so often? Do people really think the actual owner is not going to follow through if they don't get paid for their work? That's some fucking bullshit, and I feel for anyone who does design/photography work and has to deal with that crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same owner buys it back at far cheaper, renames it, & the dumbass higher-ups decide to give them an account again. 'merica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Ah Juan, you locked the fun thread . Clearing me telling him he was too lazy to pay for a "family relic" of a $500 7" was the same as people asking money for a wheelchair or money for sick family members. They are totally on the same level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Yeah...I got a few messages asking to lock it. Better now than instead when it gets out of control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I'm surprised he actually responded today, since he didn't for a few days. He must have gotten all uppity about it. I agree with the lock, but more fun could have been had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Motherfucker got me HEATED. I saw that, and you had every reason too. Dude is clearly just asking for a hand out, and comparing apples to shit when we try to point it out. He either has no sense of how money works, is super dense, or just an entitled asshole who thinks others should pay his way through life.

Guest Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 All of the above Most likely the case. Trying to defend himself was ridiculous. I can't believe how dense he is. It really was. I seriously can't comprehend how people think like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deafening Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 just an entitled asshole who thinks others should pay his way through life. Still internally enraged from that guy. There is nothing wrong with asking for help. but dude is a complete stranger to the community & not once gave any indication that him and his family were going to put a fucking cent towards this non-necessity. No. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic_ Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 All of the above Don't blame you, I wanted to smack the motherfucker. Still think it'd be funny to DM his wife a screenshot of where he called them all ugly, just for petty shits and giggles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Family Friendly Rap God Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 so... that time when livenation uses your photo to promote their contest?? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CQkk37DWcAA8B7-.jpg:large That's super shitty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hippielauryn Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I love my job. Part of an email I sent to a customer... "Confirming PO.... for five nipples, shipping direct to you." haha. I get to write POs for the nipples, bushings, gauge cocks all the time. It's the little things that make the mundane tolerable. +hecollec+or 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a past life, I had to order multiple sizes of breast implants. Being involved in sizings was always strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
