Press "delete" now if you've heard the story of the photographer in  
the restaurant...
----------------

A photographer is dining in a restaurant. It's slow, and the waiter is  
bored, so he strikes up a conversation while taking the order.

"So, what do you do when you aren't dining out?" the waiter asks.

"Oh, I'm a photographer," the photographer answers.

"Cool! Do you have any of your photos with your?" the waiter requests,  
"I'd love to see them!"

"I happen to have my portfolio with me -- just came from a new  
client," the photographer answers.

The waiter looks over the photographs with delight, making  
complimentary comments about several favourites. As they wind up the  
tour, the waiter says, "Wow, these are wonderful photos -- you must  
have a very expensive camera."

"Well, it's all right, I guess," the photographer answers.

He finishes his meal, and as he's heading out of the restaurant, he  
summons the waiter.

"That was a wonderful meal," he tells the waiter, "Please tell the  
chef he must have very expensive pots and pans."

----------------
I still think a photographer who lets his clients dictate what  
equipment he uses is probably pretty low in the talent department. I  
would rather work for people who are more interested in the results  
than the tools. Or they should employ the sales guy at the photo  
store, instead.
