Hey so I have recentley started a kind of niche channel that has randomly taken off this year. Very slow, meditative abstract nature films. When I post a video, I get a surge of traffic to my channel, tons of subs, watch time, likes etc. But after about a week, if im not activley posting clipped up versions of the long format video as shorts. It dies. Like stats show numbers like this "you are getting 628% more subscribers than previous 28 days, 900% more watch time etc" but if I dont post for a week or two, these reverse. "You are down 97% than previous week etc". Is this normal, or is my channel dieing and just clinging to threads at this point?? I get that my stuff is not for everyone and more of a slow burn, but the numbers are confusing? Any insight is greatly appreciated!

I just came on here to vent about the female manager that works at the Tim Hortons on Westshore near the Malahat Higway. How she is allowed to work in customer service, let alone, manage the store is beyond me. She ruins my morning everymoring with her poor attitude and snarkiness through the drive through mic. They can never hear me, or anyone else, people literally scream at the drive through lol. But, I guess thats the customers fault? She is blatantly rude almost everyday; she is also the only employee that does not where a name tag (probably on purpose). I think she's the manager because she wears a different shirt than the rest. Total bitch! Holy hell. I normally dont give reviews or vent like this. But man this woman..... and its its not like she had a bad day, its consistent shitty energy, every single day. Has anyone else encounted this devil woman???

Recentley I was shooting on a coastline with my tripod set up and random guy walked up in my face and said very angrily "what's your shutter count? Mine is infinite" then started blinking his eyes repeatedly while staring diectly at me... he said nothing else, and carried on his way. It was one of the most wild human interactions Ive had while photographing. What is yours?
