When I was in college, I was interested in photography as a hobby, so I decided to take a summer job as an intern at a stock photography agency. It was the worst thing that I ever did, as it totally changed my mind in perusing taking pictures as a hobby.
The work was extremely boring and tedious. One of my major tasks was going over every single photo that was submitted with a fine tooth comb for any flaws that would need to be repaired. I knew that it was one of the larger stock photos royalty free companies in the city and I knew it would be a lot of work, but I figured it would be a little bit more glamorous than that.
Summer could not end fast enough for me. I was never so glad to be back in classes and to this day, I could care less to see another stock photo again for as long as I live.
