Had my first day of work today. 9:30 to 5:00. I'm also scheduled tomorrow and Sunday for 7-8 hour shifts, then nothing for the rest of the week. Of course weekends are a theater's busiest times, and they told me in the beginning they weren't going to schedule me too many days until I proved I was actually going to show up, but right now I'm wondering if all my shifts are going to be full shifts. I mean, this is only my second paying job, but at Round Table I had 4-5 hour shifts as well as 8 hours. I hope Cinemark also schedules shorter shifts, even if only on weekdays.
Mostly because my feet are killing me. I'm working concessions, which is an easy job so far, while still keeping me busy enough that I didn't get bored. I'm fine with the job, and fine with working for seven or eight hours. I've just never had a job that kept me on my feet all day, so they really hurt.
Anyone have any advice for what to do to minimize the soreness? I'm going to be standing just as long tomorrow and the next day, and I'd like them to be less than a complete misery.
