Which Line are You in?

I just got home from the Wedding Professional Photographers International conference in Vegas. Anyone who is anyone in the world of wedding photography was there. It was such an amazing opportunity to be trained by some of the top photographers in the world. However, that amazing experience was tainted by some bad planning.

I arrived at many classes very early, only to find that the classes were already filled to capacity. I'd then check out other classes to find that they were all full as well. It seemed that it was either impossible to plan an event for 12,000 photographers very well, or that bad panning went into it. Some people waited in line for over 2 hours just to get into a class. It was a crazy mess.

At one point I overheard a man say, "When we meet someone, we don't ask them their name. Instead the first thing we ask is, 'which line are you in?'"
