| GC guy said "tape is dead"
I recently asked the GC guy for hi-8 tapes (I still track to hi-8 sometimes and I always make safety copies of tracking sessions to hi-8) He informed me that "tape is dead" with a bit of a nasty attitude. I just smiled, walked out of the store, went on the internet and ordered $500 worth of tape from someone who sells products (instead of preaching their own stupid opinion.) Often the GC guys have the attitude that they know the biz better than some of us who work behind a console instead of a counter.
While I'm at it, it bugs the hell out of me that after I spend some real $$ at a GC store, my bags and receipt are checked at the door... I'm a good customer, not a friggin criminal trying to rip you off. This is really insulting! |
