You need to be fair and impartial, remember, defendants have stories to tell, too. I worked as the ad department photographer for a local paper, pays LESS, not more (no union). Position was created so the photo department could avoid grip-n-grins, etc. Many weeks I had more photos in the paper than the three editorial photographers, combined. darkroommike ----------
