Snappy snaps

Today, I went to pick up some pictures I took on a family trip, but the person at the counter said someone else had already picked them up. Now not only am I out $20, some random creep has pictures of me and my whole family. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, at a family reunion, we all squeezed in for a picture. I set the self-timer and ran to get in it. 2 seconds before the picture went off, some guy came up, stole the camera, and ran away. FML

Weirded out

Today, I went for coffee with some people from work. I lined up to order behind a guy I'd only met a few times. When he paid, he dropped his wallet, and I saw that he had a picture of me cut from the company newsletter, enlarged, and taped inside his wallet. FML

Today, I saw a shady looking person on the street. As I walked past him, he said, "Hey, come here." Thinking he needed something, I went over. He handed me several pictures of my wife, in public and at home. I've never seen this man before in my life. FML

Today, I was using a Kodak Picture Maker in Walmart. I needed help using the machine so the lady that works there came over and tried to load my pictures. I heard some snickering behind me from the people in line. Turns out the pictures loaded. Even the nude ones I forgot about. FML

Today, a "friend" tried to sell me a digital camera that I recognized that was stolen from my home a week earlier, along with a few other things. FML

Classic

By jacked - 02/10/2009 23:32 - United States

Today, I was taking a group shot with my friends when I asked a stranger to take the picture for us. He backed up and told us to squish closer together, and when he was at least 20 feet away, he turned and ran off with my camera. FML

Today, a teenage girl with a selfie stick came into my workplace. She knocked down multiple displays while trying to take pictures, before leaving without making a purchase. I had to clean it all up. FML

Today, I was walking when a man pointed a camera at me. I got bitchy about it, and said "Did I say you could take a picture?" He replied with, "No, but can you get the fuck out of the way so I can take one of my wife and kids?" I turned around, and they were right behind me. FML

Did you have fun on the family trip, at least?

it could have been an accident like they were meaning to pick up another set of pictures and wound up with yours?

I hope that's what happened, otherwise it's beyond creepy. If that's the case, hopefully whoever took them takes them back so OP can get her pictures back

then demand your money back? you didn't receive what you paid for. I guess you could even sue if it bothers you that much, but it won't stop that guy having your pics

Yeah, sue them for 20 dollars and some lost pictures. That makes sense.

OP definitely should have received a refund. A lawsuit might be excessive, but it can potentially mean some stranger with photos of them and their (possible) kids.

The $20 was most likely the cost of the film that she had in the her camera before taking it to get developed.

No, it actually costs that much money to develop pictures. It's ridiculous.

Maybe they have a close last name and the envelopes were mixed up! See if the can check!

Who even does that?! Does the place that developed them keep any records of who picks what up? Like some kind of sign in or something? Hopefully it's a mix up and the people will return the pictures, but if not then that's majorly creepy.

Generally in one hour photo we just know who dropped what off because we were there. I've only been in two labs (CVS and Walgreens), neither asked for ID or track any pick ups.

#7 Agreed everytime I've gone to pick up photos they ask me for the receipt since the number on it matches my order. this clerk was probably being lazy

They don't really develop old camera film here anymore, but when they did; they gave you a little tear off from the envelope they're going to use for your pics (like a receipt). Both the tear off and the envelope have matching codes and you show them the tear off's code when you come to collect the photos, a few days later, or whenever...The shop/pharmacy that the OP went to get them done obviously has a messed up system...
