Vest Selfies

Since the vest selfies don't go to the client (according to the shop instructions, anyway) I try to have fun with them. Usually we are talking about poses. Last night, while doing a night audit in North Omaha, I took my selfie using the reflection on the bullet proof glass around the counter. (The restrooms were closed.)

Anyone else get silly with the vest?

Be careful with getting "cute" with the vest selfies. I encountered a similar problem, made space on the counter, set the camera up, used the self-timer to get the picture and the MSC accused me of having someone else take the picture.

I did not know that someone else couldn't take the picture. When there hasn't been a restroom I have asked the store employee to take the picture...
I also had no idea that someone else couldn't take the picture. Um, is it in the guidelines, anywhere? We're talking about the things you find on the beach, right?
Oh, yeah. Those sexy thangs that you wear to the beach. I didn't know you couldn't have someone else take it, but the guidelines suggest holding the camera out, or catching your reflection in the bathroom mirror. Last night I also got one in one of those round security mirrors. I looked like Nemo.
My husband does these more than me, but...we have a "Where's Waldo" figurine which gets placed in the background.

He is in the background of our STN pizza pictures too, except the Slice & Rise.

Plan the work. Work the plan.
When there's no restroom mirror, I just go outside with the PID or canopy behind me and take a selfie from arm's length, with an expression on my face that I hope conveys my deep resentment for their requirement for this particular photo.
elcarev68, you make me laugh out loud. Thank you!

I do not like my face in the photo. So I take a picture of the bottom of my vest to my shoes. They just need to see that I wore the yellow thing. I have also taken a picture of my reflection in my car window.

My favorite gas shop does not require that photo.
Typically, I take the photos in the restroom mirror. After checking my photos on my laptop while still at the shop, I noted that my 'selfie' had another person in it. Apparently, as I took the shot, a woman was exiting a stall (I thought I was by myself).

Her look seemed so angry that I decided to just go in and re-take the photo.

A good reason to review your photos before leaving the shop!
I also hate the selfies, so try to find the biggest and darkest sunglasses I have. I do like the look of resentment and the vest to shoes ideas, tho. Hmmm
imssuzie, vest pictures can be fun. Just use your imagination and they may be your favorite part of the shop. smiling smiley
