I work in a cinema which is cruisy a lot of the time but you tend to have to answer and repeat the same things again and again until you even question yourself....
Number 1:
Read the freaking program properly!
So our program is set up in three sections, The Main Cinema (MC), the little heritage listed cinema (CA) and the crappy cinema (CB). It is very clear what it says and I don't see how people can get it wrong. The Main Cinema plays the blockbuster hits that everyone loves! CA and CB play art house films and films that aren't very popular...
Why would you come to CA and try and get a ticket for Guardians of the Galaxy? The titles of what movies that are playing are clearly out the front of the cinema! Sorry, off to MC you go. Oh you don't know where that is? I'll just get my co worker to explain it to you because I can't be screwed anymore and I have had to repeat the same directions about 4 times already today.
I know it doesn't sound bad but if you saw the program it is clearly marked out with big black letters which cinema has what movies playing!
Number 2:
Don't assume since I work at a cinema I have seen all the movies. I guess you want my opinion but I am just so fed up with people asking me about 10 times a day have I seen the movie. Some even give me a weird looks and say 'But you work here!' Yes correct I WORK here. I don't get paid to watch the movies I get paid to serve you! Pretty sure if I went and sat in a movie when I'm working I would get fired on the spot.
Although, they probably think in my free time I go to the movies.... wrong! 6 days a week working in a cinema really makes you despise movies. Sure I get in for free but all I want to do is sleep on my day off.
Number 3:
SC: Two for <movie name>
Me: Sorry that is only on at MC and CB
SC: What times?
Me: <says session times>
SC looks at husband: What times is it on at <competitors names>?
Me: Probably asking her husband so I'll just keep going with my work
I look up.
SC: *gives me black stare*
Me: Oh I don't know the times for them. We are a separate company.
SC: *looks at husbands, shakes her head and sighs*
Wait?! Why would I tell you the times for my competitors? We want your money here! My boss would be furious if I sent them to another company for the exact same movie!
Okay so these aren't really sucky but I didn't realise how dumb some people are or just how many things I have to repeat.
