Back in the 70's, I used to own my own darkroom and often someone would come in requesting that I process a personal roll of film. Whenever they would say, "Its an old roll I found lying around", it was like code words for me. It meant, "Keep a close eye out for these results!" I was rewarded quite often!
*Note: Although I usually only did hands-on custom work, some people occasionally brought personal rolls of film to me if they were afraid that the big "chain" developer stores would refuse to give them service or when they just needed discretion. That was always rewarding!
