Do theater employees get paid enough to even care?

[–] Neato@kbin.social 30 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Absolutely not. I worked in a theatre for a summer and I thought I had a pretty good work ethic. As long as you weren't rolling in with a pizza box clearly displayed, I'm not going to ask you for shit besides tickets. Do you have insulin in your backpack or an entire KFC dinner for 6? We will never know.

I had a party size bag of Doritos in the back of my T-shirt once, they let me right in.

Are you guys not getting taken to a side room and frisked when you see a movie?

On several occasions I've literally made eye contact with the ticket person, drink in hand, and not once have they ever said anything, at least not in recent years. Last time they paid the employees enough to care was in the 90s.

Wait your theaters still have people checking tickets?

The one for Beetlejuice earned his wage. 🤣
