  • I am of no help to you...

    This is why I hate answering the phone.

    Me: Blah blah, how can I help you?

    Young Lady: I'm trying to upload pictures to you website but it's only letting me do one at a time.

    Me: I can't really help you with that but there is a number on the site to call.

    YL: I called but they don't open until 10. (It was 9:15 ish)

    Me: Yeah, still can't help you.

    YL: Is there anyway I can access my photos from your kiosk?

    Me: We don't have a way to upload photos to our website from the store.

    YL: My photos are on Google Photo and it's only letting me upload one at a time. I'll just have to go somewhere else to print them.

    Me: Still can not help you. We can maybe take pictures from Instagram or Facebook or if the pictures are on your phone or flash drive you can come into the store to print them.

    YL: So I can't access Google Photos to upload them because it's only letting me do one at a time. I'm going to have to go somewhere else to print them.

    Me: No, I gave you options and you didn't like them.

    YL: Guess I'm going to have to go somewhere else to print them.

    Me: Okay, have a nice day.

    This isn't a word for word account of this conversation. I was much more businesslike in answering this girl. But the gist of the conversation is there. You can keep asking me questions but it's not going to magically change reality.
    I would have a nice day, but I have other things to do.

    I love how she kept slipping in "Guess I'll have to go somewhere else to print them" like some kind of passive threat to actually go elsewhere, as if it would make you magically do what she wanted.

        Yeah, she kept saying it like two or three times. Good luck with that. Good luck even finding a store that does photo with people to help you. Even more luck finding a place that lets you take the photos from Google.

          Do you mean these were not her photos, but images taken from Google image search?

          Because if they are from Google Images no store that does not want to be in a lawsuit will touch them.

          If they are her own photos, assuming any photo store will pull pictures from on-line is a big assumption. Worse, we don't know what resolution she took them at, my ex-girlfriend on her trip to Europe did not check her settings, half her photos were at 640*480 resolution - there was no way to fix those pictures.

            I don't think so, she said Google Photo so they may have been her photos or something she had access to. But I'm not tech support so I couldn't help her with something I don't know what she's asking about.

              Android has a function to to auto sync your photos to Google Photos. And yes, they transfer one at a time.

                I have an Android but I guess I never noticed that. Of course maybe I'm smart enough to know how to get my photos so I can get them printed. Looks like I got my holiday spirit!
