  • I'm not sure if I was being an SC or she was just dumb.

    So a few weeks ago I went to "The Dark Knight" I worked opening night, and my brother was sick so we went on Sunday. Since it was still opening weekend, I decided to dress up for the movie. This is important. Anyway we arrive several hours early and wait are first in line for the 9pm showing. Once we are set up in what I believe to be the best seats, I run off to get the snacks.

    I'm half running, half skipping across the multiplex. The largest theatre is on the far end from the concessions, so I was zigging and zagging around in my costume. So I run up to the concessions stand and smile at the girl, who looks stunned. I assumed it was my costume. I had two pigtails made of just the top of my hair held up with fluffy scrunchies. I was wearing elf boots, mismatched stripped knee socks, elbow length half gloves with netting over them, a cherry red peasant skirt, and a blue t-shirt with a guilty looks cartoon penguin that says "Penguin made me do it."

    As I said, I assumed the girl at the counters stunned expression was because of my appearance. At least until we spoke.

    Me: Hey can i get the Super Combo? (Two large drinks, large pop corn, and candy)
    Girl: Sure.
    Me: (Looks up at the options again) Actually, sorry. I'll have the Batman combo with the butter layered and a coke to drink. Oh and a sprite too?
    Girl: Um...the batman combo doesn't come with two drinks.
    Me: Yeah, I know.
    Girl: ...
    Me: I would like to buy the sprite on top of the combo.
    Girl: ....
    Me: *sighs* I would like a large Sprite. And this box of chocolate covered almonds. I'd also like to get the Batman combo. I'd like a coke for the combo drink, and if I could get real butter put on the popcorn, layered, I'd appreciate that.
    Girl: Oh! You want to buy an extra drink.
    Me: *twitch* Yes, dear.
    Girl: Kay
    She then fills the drinks and starts get the popcorn. I notice the bag is full, so I call "Um, can i get that layered please?" She looks at me, rolls her eyes, and dumps out half. She then puts butter in the center fills the bag, puts more butter on and hands it to me.

    So I'm not sure if I acted like and SC there. I kind of feel like I did, but I also feel like the girl was being at total numbskull.

    I'd say she was either REALLY new or an idiot. I'm leaning more towards the idiot. I don't see anything sucky in the way you delt with her.

      Maybe she was running on autopilot and needed to reboot? I'm used to rattling off the same phrase over and over in my cashiering job and will do it even if it's not applicable to the transaction. Sorry, but cashiering uses far too few brain cells for me to pay attention. Personally, I thnk you should've waited to see how long you could stare at each other before she realized.

          Not Sucky in the slightest!! You didn't cop any attitude when having to repeat yourself, and you were only pointing out what you wanted, as she clearly didn't have a clue!!

              Yes I am! Though my costume was modeled more so after the Jokerz gang from the Batman Beyond cartoon show.

              Yeah. You have to pay for two butters though. You just say you want it halfway through and on top. Sometimes if i'm getting a large I get it done in thirds.

              I hate getting to the end and having no butter.

                  I don't think you were being sucky, although having only ever been a patron of movie theatres and never working in one I can imagine this poor girl had been run into the ground all week, especially with Dark Knight having just opened.
                  She may not be genuinely dumb, just wiped out from working her ass off for hundreds of people and only making a pittance for it.
                  I know I would be.
