Michael Burr Photography Unprofessional, abusive and uses unecessary profane language Internet

If you are considering hiring Michael Burr at m.burr@verizon.net for any sort of video or photo needs, you might want to read this review. He apparently has a very nasty attitude and uses profane, unnecessary language. He apparently doesnt want to work very badly, when good money is being offered and he instead decides cuss someone youd think the guy is off his rocker or seriously disgruntled about something. 

I had my assistant create an ad on Craigslist as we were seeking to have a videographer hired to shoot footage for videos. God Bless my assistants heart, she spelled videographer as videographist.

So Im thinking like, who cares right? I mean everyone who replied to the ad overlooked the mistake, probably because they wanted to make money and have a good disposition. Not Mr. Micheal Burr though, nope he instead sent the following that I pasted below.

reply to my ad from Michael Burr:

Ha-Ha, you're
funny. There's no such thing as a "...videographist...", it's "videographer" ya' ignorant f**kwit.

--------------------------------------

For those of your who are considering him I thought that this HUGE red flag about his professionalism should be published. I mean why even do this? And attach his name to it on top of it all? Using this language is unnecessary and I cannot imagine a single real professional acting like this. Such behavior likely speaks bounds about the quality of his photos and videos, typically such nasty attitudes follow long stints of no work. Maybe he is lashing out? Sad. There are so many good videographers and photographers in LA trying to make some money and I think the public should have this review to measure his lack of
professionalism against those in the field who work harder and have better customer relations.

Its bad enough the Craigslist is such a wild west show that it is, but having this guy make it worse doesnt help anything for us trying to find a professional to work with. Very sad representation Michael Burr!
