Bitch and the City

[cinema guy]

My coworker L tried to help a woman collecting a pre-booked ticket from one of our machines.

SC: "How does this work."
L: "Just swipe you card."
SC: "I CAN'T HEAR YOU. Speak up!"
L, moving closer. "Swipe your card. Or we can do it at the box office for you."
SC: "No, I need to learn how to use the machine."
SC tries several times and L takes the lady and her card to the box office.
No booking is found.
L: "Are you certain you booked it with this card?"
SC: "I only have one card!"
L: "When you booked it did everything work okay, did it go through?"
SC: "Yes."
A manager is called, a more detailed search is done on the office computer. Her booking is found. At which point SC says, "Oh I have a new card. I must have used that."

I've had situations like that before, and I always feel a bit more dead inside afterwards.

Except for my other card.... talk about a brain melt! A-DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

People hurt my brain.

People hurt my brain.

Mine too. I try not to interact with them if possible.

At my last theatre, we had a scanner which read a barcode on the printout you HAD to make. If, by some chance, they didn't have a printer, we could print out the ticket via the card number.

That scanner was amazing. Saved us so many times.

and you only have one brain, which you weren't using, either.

this one needs technology restrictions of some sort.
